Nebbiolo Langhe is made from the same grape as the famous wines Barolo and Barbaresco, the nebbiolo. Nebbiolo gives wines like this a distinguished and grand character, but slightly lighter in structure than the great wines themselves. They are the product of the strict selection for the top wines, supplemented with grapes from outside the Barolo and Barbaresco. A perfect mix for a wine that has character, but is also flexible enough to enjoy young. The grapes are harvested a few days earlier than those for the Barolo and Barbaresco. Fermentation on the skins takes about 12 to 13 days. This produces a wine that is a lighter version of the great wines, but still has a clear personality, with the same character of the nebbiolo, but in a more accessible form, a little easier to approach. Delicious wine, with a lot of finesse.
