Metodo Classico Nebiò Rosato Extra Brut DOCG 2017 - Rapalino
Why we like this:
Our reviews:
Fragrant Complex Floral
Nebbiolo cultivated with passion in the lands of Alba, Treiso and Neviglie is used. The wine spends more than 55 months on the yeasts, a process that gives it an unparalleled olfactory and gustatory complexity. At sight, the wine presents itself with an antique pink hue, almost like a summer sunset on the Piedmontese hills. On the nose, notes of wild red fruits and wild flowers emerge, a bouquet that evokes the uncontaminated nature of the region. In the mouth, the wine is an explosion of flavors, with a solid structure and a complex and persistent finish. Ideal for aperitifs or to accompany elaborate starters, medium-aged cheeses and foie gras.

The Rapalino winery is a small family-run farm, managed by the brothers Claudio and Marco, helped by their father Giorgio. The vineyards are located in Alba, Treiso, Neviglie and Moscato in Mango and Camo. A great attention to the tradition carried out first in the vineyard and then in the cellar, in order to ensure the highest quality of each single bottle.
