Description
Fontanafredda Langhe Riesling Marin 2022 is a bright, elegant white wine that shows how beautifully Riesling can express itself in Piedmont. Fresh, precise and refined, it combines the grape’s classic aromatic lift with the cool-climate character of the Langhe, making it a distinctive choice for lovers of crisp, mineral whites. Fontanafredda, one of Piedmont’s most historic names, brings both tradition and a modern touch to this expressive wine.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a pale straw-yellow color with brilliant reflections. The nose is delicate and inviting, with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers and a subtle mineral edge, often joined by faint hints of stone fruit and herbs.
On the palate, it is lively and well-defined, with fresh acidity, clean fruit and a dry, focused finish. The wine’s balance and tension give it excellent drinking appeal now, while its structure suggests it can develop additional complexity over the next few years.
Production
Produced in the Langhe area of Piedmont, where the vineyards benefit from cool temperatures, good sun exposure and well-draining soils, this Riesling is shaped by a terroir that supports freshness and aromatic precision. The grapes are typically harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve their natural acidity and expressive fruit character. Vinification is carried out with care to maintain purity and finesse, usually involving gentle pressing and cool fermentation in stainless steel to highlight the variety’s aromatic profile.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs well with seafood, shellfish, sushi, light poultry dishes, vegetable risotto and fresh cheeses. It is best served well chilled, around 8–10°C, and usually does not require decanting, though a short airing can help if you want the aromatics to open up more fully in the glass.
Producer
Fontanafredda is one of Piedmont’s most iconic producers, with roots dating back to the 19th century and a longstanding reputation for quality and regional authenticity. Based in Serralunga d’Alba, the estate has played an important role in shaping the identity of Langhe wines and remains highly respected for its commitment to both tradition and innovation. Over the years, Fontanafredda has earned recognition for producing wines that reflect the character of Piedmont with consistency and elegance.
