The wine region of Alta Langa
Piedmontese DOCG on the high Langhe hills (Alessandria, Asti, Cuneo) above 250 m. Metodo classico sparkling (90-100% Pinot Noir and/or Chardonnay, min. 30 months on lees, 36 for Riserva): fine creamy bubbles with notes of citrus, yellow apple, brioche, hazelnut, white flowers and chalky touch, taut and precise palate — the great classic sparkler of Piedmont. Also delicate rosés.
The wine region of Piedmont
Kingdom of Nebbiolo: Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG, long-ageing reds with firm tannins and lively acidity, complex aromas of withered rose, sour cherry, tar, truffle and undergrowth. More accessible, tangy Barbera on red fruit, supple, crisp Dolcetto. Sweet, floral sparkling Moscato d'Asti, mineral, lemony Gavi (Cortese) white, round, almondy Arneis from Roero. 50,000 ha across the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, UNESCO.
The word of the wine: Ovoids (tanks)
Egg-shaped vats used for wine making and maturing that favour the natural suspension of the lees thanks to the vortex movements, which give the wine more fat and fruity aromas.
