Wine Art Estate Nebbio (3 Bottle Minimum)

Exceptional red variety Nebbiolo, the famous diva from Piemonte, is known among wine circles as "the variety that does not travel" since it can rarely offer its incomparable charm away from the foggy and humid weather of the Italian region. Tasting Wine Art Estate Nebbio, a wine produced in minuscule quantities with fruit from the vineyards of Drama, makes us cry out: and yet, it travels!

WINEMAKING
Cold soak of the skins to the juice prior to fermentation for a few days to transfer noble phenols and structure from the grapes, before the "appearance" of alcohol. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with regular pumping-over to extract colour and tannins. After the malolactic conversion, the wine is transferred to old, exhausted 225 L French oak barrels for 4.5 years of maturation. Light filtration and bottling.

APPEARANCE / Light garnet colour

NOSE / The long aging process contributes to the creation of a wonderful spectrum of aromas and memories. Dried plums, tobacco, soy sauce, cigar box and pastirma savoury notes make up a nose that changes, evolves and surprises.

PALATE / Aging has given the wine a velvety texture, while the underlined acidity keeps it alive and full of nerve. Moderate alcohol, beautifully ripe tannins and moderate body offer Nebbio balance and flexibility.

FOOD PAIRING
Velvety textures, complexity, and depth of flavours are the elements we need to look for in our dishes for the unique and rare Nebbio to be well-paired. It will go well with foods such as a juicy Beef Wellington wrapped in a crispy dough, a wild boar fillet, a mushroom risotto with ground Parmesan, as well as a nice burger stuffed with blue cream cheese.
