Discover the best wines made with Nebbiolo as a single variety or as a blend of Valpolicella.
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.
Veronese Veneto, four styles of red around Corvina. Classic Valpolicella: fruity and light (cherry, kirsch, spice), thirst-quenching. Ripasso "re-passed" over Amarone marc: fleshier. Signature Amarone DOCG: grapes dried 120 days (appassimento), a powerful, opulent red (candied cherry, plum, chocolate), 15-16%, great ageing.
