Discover the best wines made with Nebbiolo as a single variety or as a blend of Serra do Sudeste.
Austere, noble reds, pale in colour and quick to turn garnet, with powerful tannins and high acidity, showing aromas of sour cherry, faded rose, tar, white truffle, leather and balsamic notes with age. Outstanding ageing potential. Absolute star of Piedmont with Barolo DOCG and Barbaresco DOCG, also in Roero, Gattinara, Ghemme and Valtellina (Chiavennasca). A late-ripening Italian variety among the world's greatest.
Emerging region of southern Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil), rolling hills at 200-400 m on granite and schist soils, marked diurnal temperature range. Cabernet Sauvignon is the signature red: structured and fresh with blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, pepper and an herbal touch, firm tannins and acidity preserved by altitude. Supple Merlot, dense Tempranillo, Touriga Nacional and robust Tannat complement. Taut Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon Blanc in whites.
