Specifications
AppellationNebbiolo d'Alba
VinificationThe grapes are harvested when already slightly overripe and put into small-perforated containers, each containing up to 20 kg. When needed, the fruit is selected by inspecting each bunch individually. Within a few hours after the grapes have been harvested, they are transported to the winery, followed by pressing, and a light, carbonic cold steeping. The fermentation is conducted under a controlled temperature of approx 30°C following frequent and delicate pumping over. The steeping on the dregs of pressed grapes is long (about 300 hours). The new wine is kept in stainless steel tanks under a controlled temperature for the final alcoholic fermentation and the spontaneous malolactic fermentation.
ÉlevageThe Nebbiolo d’Alba rests for 12 months in oak casks and then a further 6 months in the bottle in order to blend the great structure of this wine.
Tasting NotesIntense, ruby red color with a fruity, fresh, and vinous bouquet. Full-bodied and well-structured. Blended with a slight hint of oak. Very intense, round, and persuasive aftertaste.
Food PairingsTo be served with flavorsome main courses, game, and aged cheeses.
