Grape: NebbioloVintage: 2021Type: Red Produced by Chiara Boschis in the Langhe region of Piedmont, this red wine offers a fresh, low-intervention look at the nebbiolo grape. The fruit is sourced from organically farmed estate vineyards rooted in complex calcareous marl and sand soils. Hand-harvested grapes are destemmed and fermented spontaneously with native wild yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. It undergoes a gentle maceration to prioritize high-toned aromatics and structural freshness over heavy wood extraction before aging in seasoned casks. It shows a translucent ruby hue, releasing aromatics of wild strawberry, red currant, and fresh rose petals. On the palate, the light-to-medium body feels energetic and fluid, balancing crunchy berry fruit with a fine-grained tannin grip. Savory undertones of white pepper and damp earth add depth across the mouthfeel without feeling heavy. A clean thread of alpine acidity runs through the center, keeping the profile lively. It finishes bone-dry, leaving a light mineral trail.
