Tenuta La Fiammenga, Piemonte Grignolino Jescot 2022

Tenuta La Fiammenga’s Piemonte Grignolino Jescot 2022 is an elegant expression of one of Piedmont’s most distinctive native red grapes. Produced in the clay-rich heart of Monferrato, it combines vibrant red-fruit character and floral finesse with silky tannins and a pleasantly persistent finish. The estate’s winemaking heritage dates back to 1596, reflecting a unique meeting of Flemish and Italian culture.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays an intense ruby-red colour. Its nose opens with aromas of ripe red fruit, delicate flowers and a subtle touch of spice. On the palate, it is harmonious and well balanced, with a pleasing softness, persistent flavour and velvety, elegant tannins. Its freshness and structure make it enjoyable in its youth, while careful cellaring over the next few years should allow the fruit and spice notes to develop further.

Production
The vineyards lie in the clay-rich soils of Monferrato, an area well suited to Grignolino’s expressive, aromatic style. The grapes are destemmed without crushing, followed by a 24-hour cold maceration. Alcoholic fermentation takes place with regular remontage, followed by a further 12 days of maceration. The wine is then matured for six months in French oak barrels, adding subtle depth while preserving its varietal elegance.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at approximately 14–16°C. Piemonte Grignolino is a versatile companion to antipasti, cured meats, fresh and medium-aged cheeses, mushroom dishes, pasta with tomato-based sauces and roasted poultry. Decanting is not essential, although a short 20–30 minute aeration can help open the wine’s floral and red-fruit aromas.
