Lethbridge’s commitment to expressing the unique character of Geelong’s terroir through both classic and alternative varieties has earned serious critical acclaim and recognition as one of Australia’s finest cool-climate producers. ‘Il regalo di compleanno’ — Italian for “the birthday gift” — is one of Lethbridge’s most celebrated and distinctive expressions, a rare and extraordinary Geelong Nebbiolo of exceptional quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Nebbiolo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNebbiolo — Italy’s most noble red variety, the backbone of Barolo and Barbaresco in Piedmont, one of the world’s most celebrated and age-worthy red wines. Known for its extraordinary aromatic complexity, firm tannin structure and the distinctive tar and roses character that defines great Nebbiolo. In Geelong’s cool-climate conditions, Nebbiolo develops elegant red fruit character while retaining the firm tannin structure and aromatic complexity that defines great Nebbiolo — and Lethbridge’s ‘il regalo di compleanno’ is one of Australia’s finest and most distinctive expressions of this extraordinary variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePale garnet with brick-red hues and excellent clarity — now 5 years old and developing beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaptivating and elegantly complex with:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ered cherry, rose petal and raspberry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etar, leather and subtle spice — the classic Nebbiolo character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edried herbs, violet and earthy minerality from Geelong’s cool-climate terroir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeelong Nebbiolo of extraordinary aromatic elegance — the red cherry and rose petal character of premium Nebbiolo beautifully integrated with the tar and leather complexity of Lethbridge’s celebrated cool-climate winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMedium-bodied with excellent balance and complexity.\u003cbr\u003eExpect layers of:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ered fruit, cherry and cranberry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003espice, tobacco and firm yet refined tannins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe elegant structure and finesse of great Geelong Nebbiolo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLong and satisfying with persistent red fruit, savoury complexity and the elegant character that makes Geelong Nebbiolo so compelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCritical Acclaim\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95pts – Halliday Wine Companion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94pts – The Wine Front\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWine Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020 (5 years old — drinking beautifully)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nebbiolo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCuvée:\u003c\/strong\u003e Il regalo di compleanno (the birthday gift)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geelong, VIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lethbridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFounders:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ray Nadeson and Maree Collis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eServing Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16–18°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drinking beautifully now – 2030+ (10–15 years from vintage)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow-braised beef with Barolo sauce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruffle risotto or wild mushroom pasta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoast duck with cherry reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOsso buco or braised veal shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is extraordinary Geelong Nebbiolo from one of Australia’s most respected cool-climate estates — \u003cstrong\u003eLethbridge’s 2020 ‘il regalo di compleanno\u003c\/strong\u003e’, 95 points Halliday Wine Companion and 94 points The Wine Front, now 5 years old and drinking at the peak of its extraordinary maturity.\u003cbr\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003e$42\u003c\/strong\u003e, it delivers outstanding Geelong Nebbiolo character and exceptional value — the birthday gift of exceptional Nebbiolo that delivers elegance, complexity and remarkable depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIl regalo di compleanno — the birthday gift.
