First Drop Forza Nebbiolo 2018 from First Drop Wines in Adelaide Hills unleashes Piemontese drama and cool-climate finesse, a Barolo-hearted red that seizes granite soils and wild ferment thunder in every translucent garnet pour.

The nose soars with rose petal potpourri, sour cherry pip and bergamot rind in First Drop Forza Nebbiolo 2018, threaded with tar, tobacco leaf, scorched almond and ironstone dust – palate coils with redcurrant acidity, chalky tannins and alpine herb tension that unravels into endless Nebbiolo perfume.

Decant for wood-fired duck breast, wild mushroom risotto, osso buco or aged cheddar – this benchmark Adelaide Hills Nebbiolo 2018 commands cellar reverence and elevates autumn feasts to operatic heights.
