Founded in 1985, the estate has helped bring attention to Roero’s distinctive Nebbiolo and its characteristically sandy soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine shows a bright ruby-red colour, developing garnet tones with time. Its aromatic profile brings together violet and rose with morello cherry and raspberry, followed by hints of pepper, mentholated tobacco and woodland herbs.\n\nOn the palate, it is powerful yet balanced, with taut structure and a long, savoury finish marked by medicinal herbs and forest floor. Its firm frame and fruit suggest good capacity to age; the producer’s description cites a potential of 10–15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Nebbiolo comes from hillside vineyards around 300 metres above sea level, where sunny exposure supports even ripening. Sandy soils, balanced by silt and clay, lend the wine a distinctive Roero character. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel and wooden vessels. The wine then spends more than a year in carefully selected, gradually renewed wooden casks to preserve fruit freshness, followed by further development in underground cellars carved into marl. The estate follows organic and sustainable farming principles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at around 16–18°C, ideally after allowing the wine time to breathe; decant for about an hour when young to open its aromas and soften its structure. It pairs well with braised or roasted red meat, game, mushroom dishes and aged cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMatteo Correggia was established in 1985 in Canale d’Alba and is a notable name in Roero, a region better known for its sandy soils and distinctive expressions of Nebbiolo and Arneis.
