DOC of northeastern Piedmont (Alto Piemonte) along the Sesia river (Vercelli, Biella), glacial moraine soils, cooler alpine climate than the Langhe. Nebbiolo is the signature red king ('Spanna' locally): slender and airy with red cherry, raspberry, faded rose, undergrowth, alpine herbs and a mineral touch, fine tannins and high acidity — accessible alternative to Lessona, Bramaterra and Boca. Spiced Vespolina, rounded Croatina and Uva Rara in blends. Lively Erbaluce as white.
Supple, fruity reds with a light ruby hue, smooth tannins and a fresh, light palate, showing aromas of cherry, red fruits (raspberry) and soft spices. Accessible north-west Italian profile. Traditionally blended with Croatina and Vespolina, it contributes to the typicity of the reds of Oltrepò Pavese and Novarese. Italian black grape grown in Lombardy and Piedmont.
