Brigatti Francesco Ghemme Oltre il Bosco 2021

Brigatti Francesco’s Ghemme Oltre il Bosco 2021 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from Alto Piemonte, where the grape develops a particularly elegant, savoury character. Produced under the prestigious Ghemme DOCG, it combines firm structure with the freshness and mineral precision associated with the region’s Alpine-influenced vineyards.

Tasting Notes
The wine is expected to show a bright ruby-red colour with garnet reflections developing with age. Its nose is typically marked by red cherries, wild berries and rose, complemented by earthy nuances, dried herbs and subtle spice. On the palate, Ghemme’s characteristic acidity and fine-grained tannins provide structure, while flavours of sour cherry, cranberry, liquorice and woodland herbs bring freshness and complexity. The 2021 vintage should offer both youthful energy and good cellaring potential; it can be enjoyed now with decanting or developed further over the next several years.

Production
Ghemme lies in northern Piedmont on mineral-rich, glacially influenced soils at the foothills of Monte Rosa. The appellation is based predominantly on Nebbiolo, locally known as Spanna, often complemented by traditional local varieties. The grapes are vinified to preserve freshness and aromatic definition, followed by the maturation required for Ghemme DOCG; precise harvesting and ageing details for this bottling have not been provided.

Food & Serving
Serve at approximately 16–18°C, allowing the wine to open gradually in the glass. A short decant of 30–60 minutes is recommended when drinking it young, while older bottles are best decanted carefully to remove sediment. Its savoury structure makes it a natural partner for braised beef, game, mushroom dishes, truffle-based pasta, risotto and mature hard cheeses.

Producer
Francesco Brigatti is a family producer associated with the Ghemme area of Alto Piemonte, a historic wine region known for its long-lived Nebbiolo-based reds. The estate contributes to the continuing recognition of Ghemme as one of northern Italy’s distinctive appellations, although further details about the winery’s history and specific achievements are not available from the information provided.
