LANGHE DOC NEBBIOLO

Production zone: municipalities of Treiso, Neive and Barbaresco

Variety: Nebbiolo 100%; exposure: south - east - west

Altitude: 200 - 400 m a.s.l.

Year of planting: all Barbaresco Nebbiolo vines planted in recent years, up to a maximum of 15 years old

Training system: gujot

Plant density per hectare: 5000

First year of production: 1960; Soil: various soils in the Barbaresco area.

CHARACTERISTICS:

To produce this wine we use grapes that from year to year in our opinion are not suitable for producing Barbaresco. The increase in our winery's production area means that this product also and above all includes grapes from the new plantings, which in our opinion, precisely because they are young, are not complete for producing grapes destined to give a great Barbaresco.

TECHNICAL NOTES:

In vinification we try to exalt the freshness characteristics of Nebbiolo to the maximum: maceration is not very long and with controlled temperatures in order to have freshness of taste and smell. Ageing is carried out partly in barriques, a percentage of which are new, varying from year to year, and partly in 50 hectolitre wooden barrels for a period of about a year. After blending, it is left to rest for about two months in the bottle before being placed on the market.

TASTING CARD:

Clear, brilliant, purplish-red in colour with the clearer tannic nuances visible at the rim of the glass typical of Nebbiolo. The olfactory sensations are persistent, fragrant, open and emphasise the fruitiness and immediacy of the wine, surrounded by perceptible notes of strawberry and raspberry, characteristic of this wine. Good taste persistence with the presence of the slight tannic note typical of young Nebbiolo, well surrounded by the wood and the other taste components of the wine (protein, mineral salts and trivalent alcohol). The aftertaste is also good with long and stimulating chews.
