Langhe Nebbiolo is 100% Nebbiolo grapes coming from sites which enhance the more ethereal Nebbiolo aromatics and structure.
Low temperature during fermentation to have a soft extraction. Short permanence in neutral oak and the rest of aging in stainless steel to preserve the freshness and underline the classic nuances of Nebbiolo grape.
Ruby red with garnet shades, beautiful clarity. The nose is delicate and complex: the essence of Nebbiolo. The underlying structure is vibrant, and elegant with soft tannins and harmonious acidity.
Fragrant and primary, the nose of this must-buy value pick offers raspberry, mint and rose. Silky in texture and light on its feet with a succulent blood orange, Campari-esque character, its very fine tannins dissolve swiftly. To achieve an immediately approachable version of Nebbiolo, the Scavino family draws on east-facing parcels on sandy soil in the village of La Morra. Maceration lasts just five days and ageing in neutral barrels has been reduced to eight months.
Macerated cherry is the core flavor, with accents of earth and menthol. The firm structure keeps this reined in, yet there are echoes of the fruit and savory components on the finish. Drink now through 2030.
