Tasting Notes
Rovellotti Colline Novaresi “Morenico” Rosso is an inviting blend, most likely centered around fruity, approachable Nebbiolo, wrapped in earthy nuance and juicy energy. On the nose, expect red cherry, supple plum, and wild strawberry, with underlying whispers of dried herb, gentle spice, and forest floor. The palate is soft-textured and mid-weight, carrying vibrant red fruit, a hint of savoury detail, and a graceful mineral streak. Elegant with freshness and immediacy, it's charming now and would also reward short-term cellaring. - Chris L
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.
