How it's made

​

Alasia Langhe Nebbiolo is produced from Nebbiolo grapes cultivated in the Langhe hills around the town of Alba in the Piemonte region. The vineyards have a south westerly aspect and are situated at altitudes between 200 and 300M above sea level. The vines have an average age of 30 years. Planting density is about 10,000 vines per acre, where the soil is limestone-clay. Piemonte low Guyot trellis system is used. Grapes are typically hand harvested in early October. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks between 77º to 86ºF; pressed when dry and transferred to stainless steel tanks for malolactic fermentation. The wine is then racked to a mixture of French oak barrels (40%) and large traditional Piemonte oak vats for 12 months maturation. Finally these two components are blended and bottled.

Food Match​

Rich meat stew; pasta with fresh pesto, aubergine and smoked bacon.

Tasting Notes​

Pale brick red color typical of Nebbiolo. Sweetly aromatic with hints of roses, tobacco and spices. The palate offers ripe cherry and berry fruits up front, yet finishes with an earthy, savory complexity with finely-grained tannins.
