Wines made from Nebbiolo grapes of Colline Novaresi
Discover the best wines made with Nebbiolo as a single variety or as a blend of Colline Novaresi.
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.
Piedmont DOC on the hills north of Novara, acidic and mineral glacial soils. Signature Nebbiolo red king (here called Spanna, 50% min): fine and aromatic with notes of red cherry, faded rose, tar, undergrowth, herbs and a mineral touch, fine tannins and an elegant palate — more accessible and fresher than at Barolo, drink younger. Supported by peppery Vespolina, supple Uva Rara, dense Croatina, juicy Barbera. Chiselled wines.
