Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC 2021 - Cantina Moscone

The Nebbiolo grapes, grown on mainly limestone and clay soils, are entirely handpicked in early October. After careful selection, the grapes undergo gentle pressing, followed by maceration with the skins for 18-20 days. The wine completes malolactic fermentation before winter and matures for about 2 years, a phase that includes aging in oak barrels, stainless steel vats, and bottles. Organoleptically, Moscone's Nebbiolo d'Alba presents a garnet red color. The nose reveals a pleasant and intense bouquet of red berries, with hints of dried rose and violet petals. On the palate, it is a medium-bodied wine, well-structured, with soft, persistent tannins. The well-balanced acidity provides freshness, making each sip pleasantly persistent.
