Nebbiolo d'Alba Vigna Valmaggiore, Cantina del Nebbiolo 2022
Coming from the very steep Valmaggiore vineyard, this nebbiolo has great perfume with floral balsamic and sweet red-berry notes. A perfect way to try Italian nebbiolo as it has all of the character, but with much softened tannins.

Cantina del Nebbiolo
In 1959, 23 growers from the Roero district of Piedmont got together to establish the Cantina del Nebbiolo, on the road between Alba and Turin, in Borbore Vezza d’Alba, an area that had been hard hit by the deprivations of the two wars and vine diseases before that.
Overcoming the hostility of local brokers who saw this coming together in pooled resources as a threat, they made a success of their early vintages and have carried on in that trajectory ever since.
Now there are 180 members of the co-operative growing only local grape varieties on 300 hectares in the Roero and in nearby areas, including Barolo and Barbaresco.
