Langhe Nebbiolo is a wine that combines body and elegance, lends itself to aging and is one of the most representative grape varieties of our territory.
The processing of the Nebbiolo grape variety begins in winter, with the pruning of the vine, and continues with the work of attaching, cleaning and cutting the shoots. During October, the cycle concludes with the harvest.
In the cellar, the next steps are crushing and a soft destemming. Fermentation, with little extraction, takes place through maceration at a maximum temperature of 26-30 °C for about 10-12 days, with 2-3 daily pump-overs to leach the pomace.
Langhe Nebbiolo ages strictly in steel and, once bottled, rests in the bottle for at least 6 months before release.
