Giovanni Rosso - Nebbiolo - Langhe

Description

Overview: The grapes are harvested by hand in October. After destemming and soft crushing, the juice is fermented in contact with the skins in concrete tanks for about 15 days, with daily pump-overs and one délestage at half way point.

Nebbiolo, par excellence, supported by a fine tannic structure, emblematic of the grape variety it represents in all its fullness. “Notes of berries, violets, dried leaves and gentle spices. In the mouth it is straightforward, enveloping, with beautiful finesse and freshness, pleasantly tannic, dry and finishes with a hint of orange peel." reads Falstaff Magazine. There's no form of conviviality that it cannot accompany perfectly."

Tasting Notes: Violet and roses, fruity scents with cherry notes. Elegant and bloody structure, fine tannins and crisp freshness.

Pairing: Perfect for any situation, from simple picnic to sophisticated aperitif; easily supports structured dishes; pleasant also in warmer months.
