Huuuummmmm, nebbiolo!!! Just pronouncing his name tastes good. His delicate notes assail my memory with exquisite nuances and better memories. Whoever has not drunk a good nebbiolo does not know what they are missing. You should stop reading this article and immediately open a good barolo or barbaresco, then, when you return to it, the reading will surely be more pleasant for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nebbiolo is the most prestigious red grape variety in Piedmont. Possibly, its name comes from \u201cnebbia\u201d, the Italian word for fog, very frequent throughout the region, especially during the autumn months. One of the greatest spectacles that can be enjoyed in Piedmont -and there are quite a few- is its appearance, early in the morning, covering, as if it were a thin white silk sheet, the undulating hills of vineyards and villages of this magical wine region. from northern Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is a low-yielding variety, tannic, with great acidity and structure, low layer and great aging capacity. It is also very demanding on the weather, having found in Piedmont, under the majestic backdrop of the Alps, its best habitat for development. Unlike many other varieties, it is a grape that does not adapt well to other wine-growing areas. Its limited success and diffusion in the rest of Europe or the New World is enough as an example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nebbiolo is always an exquisite perfume. Endless intoxicating nuances that make our pituitary fall in love. Withered roses, violets, eucalyptus, mints, liquorice, blackberries, truffles, umami and a rest of elegant old wood that can transport us to the interior of an old church. These are just some particular notes, since each wine develops its own and each person perceives their own. In addition, it is a variety that produces extremely gastronomic wines, which pair exquisitely with local products and, above all, with the black truffle. A real downfall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best expression of nebbiolo is found in the barolos and barbarescos, which generally exude finesse and elegance. Among the captivating hills of La Morra, Serralunga, Castiglione Falleto, Barolo, or Barbaresco, to name some of the most important towns in the area, we will find wonderful nebbiolo vineyards that offer us the best barolos and barbarescos that we can drink. If you didn’t listen to me at the beginning of the article and you haven’t opened a bottle yet, don’t waste your time and do it now, you won’t regret it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
