Fratelli Alessandria’s Langhe Rosso DOC “Rossoluna” is produced in Verduno from a blend of three native Piedmontese varieties. It is the estate’s only wine made from an assemblage of grapes and aged exclusively in 500-litre tonneaux. The Campasso and Neirane vineyards lie between 250 and 400 metres above sea level, on clay-limestone soils, with vines averaging around 20 years of age. Harvest takes place in late October.
Fermentation and maceration are carried out at a controlled temperature of 29-31 °C for 10-12 days. The wine then ages for 12-14 months in French oak tonneaux, followed by 2-3 months in stainless steel and at least 2-3 months in bottle. In the glass, it stands out for its remarkable colour intensity and complex fruity and spicy aromatic nuances. A distinctive and versatile Piedmontese red, it benefits from suitable bottle ageing before serving.
