BelColle Langhe DOC Nebbiolo

2024

Nebbiolo is the iconic grape variety of Piedmont, known for producing wines of extraordinary elegance and complexity. Among its most versatile expressions are Langhe Nebbiolo DOC and Nebbiolo d’Alba DOC, two denominations that offer distinct styles but share the typical refinement of this noble grape. Langhe Nebbiolo represents a more accessible and immediate expression of this noble grape. Grown in a wider area that includes both the Langhe and part of Roero, this wine is characterized by its freshness, lively acidity, and a softer tannic structure compared to the great aging wines like Barolo and Barbaresco.

 Fresh grapes are destemmed then fermented in stainless steel tanks. Upon reaching the peak temperature, délestage in a steel tank at a controlled temperature at 18 °C for one night. Pumping over and punching down only during the tumultuous phase. Racking off before all the alcohol is done.

Ageing: 6 months

Tasting impression: It shows floral aromas with hints of ripe fruit and spices. On the palate, elegant tannins blend with the structure and find a harmonious balance with aging. Tasting temperature: 8°C

Meal coupling: pasta with rich sauces, red and white meat, medium and long ripening cheese.
