NEBBIOLO D'ALBA MICHET D.O.C. 2022

Lively ruby red colour. The perfume combines the fruity scents of raspberry and floral scents of violet, with delicate ethereal and spicy notes. The flavor is broad and balanced, with sweet tannins, never too evident.

Name: Nebbiolo d'Alba D.O.C.

Grapes: 100% Nebbiolo

Production area: Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont

Winemaking: selective destemming and delicate pressing of the bunches which are subjected to fermentation at a controlled temperature in thermo-conditioned tanks. Subsequently, maceration is promoted through repeated soft pumping over of the wine on the pomace cap to delicately extract tannins and color in a gradual and selective way. The separation of the skins occurs only when this extraction is maximum

Refinement: the wine is decanted into vitrified concrete vats, while the post-fermentation temperature of around 22°C is maintained for a long time. In this way the malolactic fermentation starts and ends spontaneously in a short time. 60% of the wine is aged in large 60 hl Slavonian oak barrels and the remaining 40% in steel; is aimed at maintaining the typical traits of freshness and florality of the -michet clone

Alcohol content: 14% - Contains sulphites
