Name Langhe Nebbiolo Classification Langhe Nebbiolo DOC Variety Nebbiolo Region Piedmont Production 7.000 bottles Soil Marly, clay-limestone | Alcohol content 14% Acidity gr./l 5.50 pH 3.60 So 2 Tot. mg/L 70.0 Residual sugar gr./l 1.0 Winemaking Crushing of the grapes, destemming, fermentation in concrete and steel, maceration of 8-10 days. Maturation 6 months in large oak casks and in the bottle at least 3-4 months lying horizontally in an underground cellar. | Colour/Taste/Aftertaste/Aroma/ Gastronomy A young wine featuring all the variety’s aristocratic characteristics, but in a slightly detached style that makes it decidedly fragrant and tasty: an attractive, deep ruby-red colour; a powerful, fragrant nose hinting at raspberries, wild strawberries, jam and geraniums, becoming more rounded over time, as spicy and ethereal overtones are added. Despite taking the place set aside for younger wines at the table, it is unquestionably a thoroughbred, pairing equally well with meat and vegetable starters, cured meats, and fondue, through to strongly-flavoured pasta, chicken dishes - especially roasts and casseroles, and medium mature cheeses. Drinking/Longevity 6/7 years Recommended Storage Into the box at 12/15° |
