Albarossa Piemonte DOC comes from grapes from the Olivola vineyards, cultivated on mainly marly and calcareous soils, at an altitude of about 130 m a.s.l.
This Piedmontese wine is the result of a cross between Nebbiolo and Barbera, great native vines that are highly widespread in the area. Albarossa reflects the tradition of Piedmont and its extraordinary terroir in a resolutely fresh and modern style. After the harvest which takes place manually, the grapes are vinified in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature and aged for a period of 6 months in barriques, followed by 12 months in large barrels and 4 in glass.
A great red, perfect for any occasion, to be uncorked with family or friends.
In the glass it shows a beautiful intense and deep ruby red color, with good concentration. On the nose there are hints of berries and cocoa, with aromas of blond tobacco and coffee, notes of leather are added. A pleasantly tasty sip, complex and full, with an elegant tannic texture and well blended in the fruity structure.
A fruity wine that goes perfectly with main courses of red and white meat, it is perfect with cheeses and typical dishes of Piedmontese cuisine. Absolutely to be tried with baked pork loin.
