NEBBIOLO D’ALBA DOC

Nebbiolo is the most versatile and cultivated grape of the Langhe, lands that have always been suited to this particular variety.


Our Nebbiolo comes from the sunny hills around the city of Alba, where it develops a solid and complex structure, which combines the typical fruity scents of raspberry, geranium and wild strawberry with the ethereal and spicy ones of cinnamon and vanilla. It is a wine with a dry and vinous taste, excellent body and outstanding aging potential.
