Description

A very happy area on the hills of Monforte d’Alba,Bricco Baronecan be considered to all intents and purposes a Cru, given its ability to perfectly express the characteristics of the Nebbiolo grape.One of the noblest vine varieties in living memory, delicate and demanding,Nebbiolois THE Piedmontese vine par excellence, capable of being highly enjoyable in its simplest expressions and legendary in its most long-lived ones.The version proposed byPoderi La Collinait ages for at least 6 months in oak barrels followed by a further 3 months of rest in the bottle, before being put on the market;tasting this wine you perceive the company’s commitment and its awareness in pursuing a style which, regardless of market fashions, undertakes a concrete path towards tradition and elegance.Light ruby red colour, it has an excellent transparency.Coherent and aligned nose on notes of small dark fruit jam, cherry and licorice, then a spicy start of nutmeg and cinnamon, violets and red roses as a side dish.Warm, fresh and savory on the palate, it has a tannin that is still in the making, slightly rough, which opens a window to possible future scenarios.With first courses with savory sauces, egg pasta but also red horns and game, it is exquisite with fondue or with the traditional ravioli del plin.
