Fogliati - Nebbiolo - Langhe DOC

Description

Overview: Our Langhe Nebbiolo comes from one of our youngest vineyards located in Castiglione Falletto, in the Pugnane Cru area, famous for the delicacy and refinement of its wines.

Grapes are handpicked and collected in boxes to preserve them before the pressing; vinification is interpreted from year to year adapting to the characteristics of the individual vintage, adopting the submerged hat technique. The refinement involves the use of large Austrian oak barrels, where our Nebbiolo rests for about 6 months under careful care; bottling takes place on the first summer following the harvest.

Tasting Notes: The Pugnane soil, made up of sandy marls rich in limestone, make our Nebbiolo an aromatic and structured wine but at the same time subtle, delicate, and smooth. Hints of spices, violets, and red fruits.

Pairing: Venison shank in red wine

Points: 88, Raffaele Vecchione

Format/ABV: 750 ml/14.0%
