{"product_id":"fletcher-adelaide-hills-nebbiolo-2012","title":"Fletcher Adelaide Hills Nebbiolo 2012","description":"\u003cp\u003eFletcher Adelaide Hills Nebbiolo 2012 is a rare Australian expression of Nebbiolo crafted by Australian-born winemaker Dave Fletcher, who has built his reputation working with the variety in Piedmont, Italy. Produced from cool-climate Adelaide Hills fruit, the wine reflects Fletcher's deep understanding of Nebbiolo and his desire to create an Australian interpretation that remains faithful to the grape's classic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter more than a decade of bottle age, the wine displays an evolved bouquet of dried rose petals, tar, red cherry, cranberry, orange peel, tobacco leaf, truffle, and earthy spice. The palate is finely structured and savoury, with mature red fruit flavours framed by Nebbiolo's hallmark acidity and persistent tannins. Layers of dried herbs, leather, forest floor, and spice add complexity, while the extended bottle age has softened the wine's youthful firmness and allowed tertiary nuances to emerge. Nebbiolo is renowned for developing aromas of tar and roses with age, and the 2012 vintage now shows these characteristics beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eElegant, savoury, and highly distinctive, Fletcher Adelaide Hills Nebbiolo 2012 bridges the gap between traditional Piedmont and modern Australian fine wine. The cool-climate conditions of the Adelaide Hills contribute freshness and aromatic lift, while Fletcher's restrained winemaking preserves the grape's transparency and sense of place. It is an excellent match for game dishes, slow-cooked meats, truffle-based cuisine, and aged hard cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fletcher","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":45322132160621,"sku":"FRAFLETCHERHILLSNEBBV12","price":78.64,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/5622\/files\/759ff4f4f78ba826b6679b6d7e4f5083.jpg?v=1781101792","url":"https:\/\/worldwine.com.au\/products\/fletcher-adelaide-hills-nebbiolo-2012","provider":"World Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
