Langhe Nebbiolo

Langhe

A lot of character

Nebbiolo represents the uniqueness and the history of our area. It has been cultivated in Piedmont since 1200 and since 1500 it has been appreciated and prized for the high quality of its wines. Each of them is representative of the slope it comes from. I respect and admire this grape variety suitable for making noble wines rich in personality and longevity. My Langhe Nebbiolo is made of fine texture and it shows in the glass, close to the classic tannins, the fruity and spicy notes native of the grape. A delicate ageing in oak helps to respect and enhance these extraordinary notes.

PAIRINGS

Langhe Nebbiolo is often referred to as the ‘Barolo’s younger brother’ due to its rich consistence. Excellent with fairly demanding meat dishes and mature, blue or goat cheeses, thanks to its versatility can easily be served with starters.

DETAILS

  • Serving temperature: between 16º and 18ºC, it can be aged in the cellar up to 10 years after harvesting.
  • Ageing process: after fermentation the wine ages for 9 months in old oak barriques to perfectly balance tannins and flavours.
  • Grape harvest: between 28 September and 15 October, Nebbiolo grapes are the latest to reach maturation, so we take into account the late tannins ripeness levels.

AVAILABLE AT

Fine dining establishments across Ontario.
Available online only as part of a mixed case.

*We are able to facilitate the purchase of exclusive wines for our customers through the LCBO Agency process. These wines are a specially curated selection we’ve put together from some of our current suppliers.  The prices quoted are by the bottle and include all fees, taxes, markups and bottle deposit. By LCBO regulation, these wines must be sold by the case only. Prices and availability are subject to change
