Overview:
Unico Zelo Truffle Hound is an early-release blend of Barbera and Nebbiolo that embraces savoury complexity over fruit-forward charm. Approachable, lively and wonderfully food-friendly, it captures the higher aromatics and herbal savouriness of these Italian varietals, reimagined with an Australian twist. This is a wine that celebrates umami character, refreshment and easy enjoyment.
Tasting Notes:
Expect smoky undertones with amaro-like spice, liquorice and cardamom, balanced by a juicy palate and fine savoury drive. Meaty and gamey with herbal lift, yet bright and refreshing, Truffle Hound offers an umami-like depth that makes it endlessly versatile at the table. Perfect with antipasti, charcuterie, slow-roast lamb or earthy mushroom dishes.
