Winemaker Notes
Ruby-red with violet nuances. Vinous, fruity bouquet which is very intense and highly appealing on the nose. Pleasantly dry, smooth, well balanced taste, with good stuffing and unmistakable almondy finish.
An excellent match for hot starters, vegetables and hot overly elaborate meat dishes.
Blend: 34% Barbera, 33% Dolcetto, 33% Nebbiolo
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.
