Gių il cappello di fronte a questo giovane produttore che non attua compromessi e va diritto per la sua strada , ecco un confortante esempio di giovani leve langarole.
La visita comincia dalla vigna (bonus) dove si pratica l'inerbimento e si cerca di mantenere il pių possibile inalterato l' ecosistema vigna.
Le vigne sono piuttosto vecchie e ottenute da selezione massale.
La macerazione sulle bucce dura , a seconda delle annate , un centinaio di giorni e si usa la tecnica del cappello sommerso con steccatura.
Tecnica piuttosto "arcaica" ma a quanto pare piuttosto efficace.
Gli affinamenti in botti grandi e qualche barrique "scarica" č lunghissimo e alcuni vini escono anche dopo 10 anni. Dolcetto Varietal character (Appellation America)
Dolcetto, a northern Italian varietal from the Piedmont region, is a lighter bodied red. This wine is fruity and means 'little sweet one' in Italian. Some will opt to put a slight chill on it. Perfect with Mediterrean cuisine such as grilled meats and vegetables. Enjoy as a summertime delight. from (Woodward Canyon website)Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorPiedmont Vignaioli Piemontesi (Italian only)

Alba is a town and comune of Piedmont, Italy, in the province of Cuneo. It is considered the capital of the hilly area of Langhe, and is famous for the white truffle, peach and wine production. Piedmont is in the Northwestern region of Italy, bordering France and Switzerland. Piedmont is predominantly a plain where the water flows from the Swiss and French Alps to form the headwaters of the Po river. The major wine producing areas are in the southern portion of the region in the hills known as the "Langhe". Here the people speak a dialect that is 1/3 French and 2/3 Italian that portrays their historical roots. Their cuisine is one of the most creative and interesting in Italy. Nebbiolo is the King grape here, producing Barolo and Barbaresco. In addition, the Barbera and Dolcetto are the workhorse grapes that produce the largest quantity of wine. Piedmont is predominantly a red wine producing area. There are a few whites made in Piedmont, and the Moscato grape produces a large volume of sweet, semi-sweet and sparkling wines as well. |
