Vigne Piemontesi Langhe Nebbiolo 2023

Vigne Piemontesi Langhe Nebbiolo 2023 is a pure, vibrant expression of Nebbiolo from the rolling hills around Alba in Piedmont. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grown on calcareous and clay-rich soils, it captures both the grape’s trademark finesse and the region’s underlying power. This is a modern, approachable take on a historically noble variety, offering a glimpse of Barolo-style character in a more youthful, ready-to-enjoy form.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Langhe Nebbiolo shows a luminous ruby core with garnet highlights at the rim, typical of young Nebbiolo. The nose is fragrant and precise, with notes of sour cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry layered over dried rose petals, a hint of violet, and subtle undertones of spice and earth. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied yet structured, with lively acidity that keeps the fruit lifted and fresh. Flavours of red cherry, cranberry and pomegranate are supported by fine, chalky tannins that give grip without harshness. Hints of licorice, tobacco leaf and a gentle mineral edge emerge on the finish, reflecting the calcareous-clay soils. While this 2023 is crafted to be enjoyed in its youth for its energy and purity, it has the structure to evolve positively over the next 3–5 years, gaining additional complexity and softness.

Production
The Nebbiolo grapes for Vigne Piemontesi Langhe Nebbiolo 2023 are sourced from vineyards near Alba, where a classic Piedmontese mix of calcareous and clay soils provides both aromatic lift and structural depth. The terroir’s good drainage and day–night temperature swings help preserve acidity and intensify flavor. Grapes are typically harvested by hand to ensure careful selection of bunches at optimal ripeness. In the cellar, a traditional vinification is used, with fermentation in temperature-controlled vessels to preserve aromatics, followed by maceration on the skins to extract color, tannin and varietal character. The wine is then matured in stainless steel and/or large neutral vessels to maintain freshness and purity of fruit before bottling.

Food & Serving
This Langhe Nebbiolo is a versatile food wine that shines with classic Piedmontese dishes and beyond. Pair it with vitello tonnato, tajarin pasta with ragù, mushroom risotto, grilled lamb chops, roast poultry, or charcuterie and aged semi-hard cheeses such as Fontina or Taleggio. Serve at around 16–18°C to highlight both the floral notes and the savory depth. A brief 30-minute decant can help the wine open up, softening the tannins and allowing the bouquet of red fruit and dried flowers to fully unfold.
