The Langhe Nebbiolo Amphorae DOC from Cascina Corte is a pure and authentic expression of the Nebbiolo variety, cultivated in the idyllic hills of the Langhe, one of the most prestigious wine regions of Piedmont. This wine is a tribute to tradition and innovation, matured in terracotta amphorae that enhance its naturalness and the integrity of the fruit.
From the first glance, the wine presents a bright ruby red color, with a slight transparency typical of Nebbiolo. On the nose, intense aromas of red fruits such as cherry and raspberry are perceived, combined with floral notes of rose and violets, enriched by a light hint of spices and damp earth, adding complexity.
On the palate, the Langhe Nebbiolo Amphorae is vigorous and persistent. The tannic structure is well balanced by the typical acidic freshness of the variety, while aging in amphorae ensures a soft and harmonious texture. The aftertaste is pleasantly long, with hints of red fruits and a slight mineral note.
This wine is ideal for accompanying dishes from the Piedmontese cuisine like "tajarin al tartufo" or "brasato al Barolo". It is also perfect with aged cheeses and red meats. Its aging potential makes it an excellent candidate to be stored in the cellar for a few years, thus allowing it to develop further nuances.
Cascina Corte, with its environmentally respectful approach and focus on quality, has created a Nebbiolo that represents a true expression of the Langhe terroir. A gem for lovers of traditional Piedmontese wines, yet with an eye towards innovative techniques.
