Winemaker Notes
Nascetta is a rare native white grape variety in the land of Nebbiolo. A semi-aromatic varietal known for its excellent bottle-aging potential. The local pronunciation of the variety name is NAS-CËTTA.
This wine is 100% Nascetta from vineyards located in Novello (a wild plot planted in 1963 in Ravera cru is included). The grapes undergo a slow fermentation in stainless steel at a low temperature and then are aged in steel for 8 months sur lie. This is followed by about one additional year in bottle. 6,500 bottles produced.
90 Points, James Suckling
Aromas and flavors of pears and apples with some candied lemon. It’s full-bodied, creamy and delicious. Drink now.
