Tasting Notes
A single-vineyard Arneis from Bricco delle Passere, grown on mixed sandstone, limestone and clay soils with a north-west exposure. Farmed organically and handled with a light touch, the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel before spending extended time on lees to build texture and complexity. It shows fresh orchard fruit and gentle florals, with a subtle mineral edge and a balanced, structured palate. - Pete 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.
