Discover the best wines made with Nebbiolo as a single variety or as a blend of Colli del Limbara.
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.
IGT of north-east Sardinia on the granite foothills of Monte Limbara (overlapping the DOCG Vermentino di Gallura), sandy draining soils, ventilated Mediterranean climate. Signature Vermentino: dry and straight with citrus, green apple, Mediterranean herbs, white flowers and saline mineral hints, typically bitter finish. Supple Cannonau (cherry, garrigue), dense Carignano and fruity Monica in reds. Nuragus and Vernaccia as local whites.
