Winemaker Notes
Aromatic with captivating scents of rose and violet, it develops distinct spicy notes of white pepper. The palate is balanced and soft, warm and persistent, featuring flavors of blackberry, raspberry, and ripe plum mingled with undertones of black pepper spice. Unique and unmistakable, it evolves over time, becoming increasingly refined up to five years after the harvest, while preserving the essence and fragrance of the original grape.
Attracting the most glory, prestige and fame to the Piedmont region, Nebbiolo in all of its expressions—Barolo, Barbaresco, Roero, Ghemme and Gattinara—creates a complex wine, truly unique for its delicate qualities combined with strength and a great potential to improve over time.
But Nebbiolo isn’t all there is to red wine from Piedmont! Barbera is the most planted variety and historically most popular as a dependable, food-friendly, everyday wine.
Beyond these two, a surprising number of red varieties call Piedmont their home. Worth a try include Dolcetto for its bold concentration and aromas of spice cake. Other grapes to investigate include Freisa, Croatina, Brachetto, Grignolino and Pelaverga.
