Tasting Notes

La Serra sits above Brunate and is entirely in La Morra, although right on the border with Barolo. The elevation here gives wines freshness and energy with bright fruit and crunchy acidity. La Serra is always quite approachable with lovely purity of fruit. Whilst it doesn’t have the status of Brunate, its full of surprises when it comes to cellaring, especially from the warmer vintages. - Importer Note

Arguably Italy’s most important fine wine region, Piedmont is synonymous with Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. It’s also home to a wide array of other compelling reds and whites that range from the austere to the juicy and joyful.


LOCATION:
Northwest Italy, bordering France and Switzerland, with the Alps to the north and the Apennines to the south.


TERROIR:
Rolling hills and foggy mornings define Langhe and Roero. Soils are mostly calcareous marl with sandy or clay-rich layers depending on the site. Continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.


VARIETIES:
Nebbiolo is king, producing powerful, tannic reds. Barbera and Dolcetto round out the red trio. For whites, look to Arneis, Cortese (Gavi), and Timorasso. Moscato is important in the Asti area.
