"The Langhe Nebbiolo has evolved a little bit from what it was originally. It used to be 100% Roero fruit andcalled Nebbiolo d’Alba because that’s the zoning there. The past few years I’ve been incorporating/blendingwith fruit from young Barbaresco vineyards that’s essentially changed the name to Langhe Nebbiolo becauseyou can’t call it Nebbiolo d’Alba if you’re getting fruit in the Barbaresco zone...
The differing parcels go into open top fermenters that post ferment go to old wood for between 12 and 14months aging. This vintage is now sourced 100% from the Barbaresco and Alba regions. It is 50% from ourvineyards and 50% from two growers we work closely with based in Roncagliette (Barbaresco) and Serragrilli (Neive)."
