Starting from the 1997 harvest, one of the most interesting of the decade, Monchiero Carbone began the production of the Roero Riserva "Printi". The message that this selection embodies is that of a product that can compare with the more structured Piedmontese reds, able to face decidedly long aging periods in absolute tranquility without having to give up the typical elegance of Nebbioli grown on the Roero hills. .
The grapes are harvested in mid-October. Maceration with the skins is always long and slow to allow the must to be enriched with all the natural components contained in the grape. After racking, the wine is placed in small wood of different passages, where the malolactic fermentation ends and where it remains for at least 22-24 months. Another year of maturation in the tranquility of the ancient cellars after bottling prepares the product for its debut.
In the glass it shows an intense and brilliant ruby red color. The nose is refined and very aromatic, the fruity aromas stand out at first of raspberry and blackberry, and subsequently hints of cocoa, cinnamon and noble woods emerge. LOn the palate it is full and of great character, followed by an excellent tannic progression. The elegance of the Roerine tannins and the perfect balance between them and alcohol result in a long and harmonious finish to be savored.
The remarkable structure and fullness of this wine require important courses of meat, roasts, game and aged cheeses. A red of great value and quality that after the first sip will immediately give great emotions.
