Lavagna Nebbiolo Langhe DOC - Rapalino 2022

Lavagna Nebbiolo Langhe DOC from Rapalino presents an elegant profile and a silky texture; it wears a bright ruby robe with garnet highlights. On the nose it opens with ripe red fruits — cherry and raspberry — accompanied by notes of dried rose, damp earth and a light spiciness. A mineral touch is also perceptible, extending its resonance and making the aromatic profile clearer and more inviting, without forcing the overall delicacy.

On the palate it confirms a fresh, savory character, supported by fine tannins and a vibrant acidity that emphasizes its drinkability; the body is medium, the balance favors energy more than power and the persistence is marked by fruity and spicy sensations. Excellent with traditional Piedmontese dishes, mushrooms, roasted meats and aged cheeses; it also pairs well with truffle-based dishes and flavorful sauces. Serve around 16–18 °C and open or decant for a few dozen minutes if paired with substantial courses.
