Langhe Nebbiolo DOC - Cavallotto

Langhe Nebbiolo DOC - CavallottoWith the Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo, a first-class red wine finds its way into the glass. It presents a wonderfully dense, ruby-red color. When the glass is swirled, this red wine reveals high viscosity, which is reflected in pronounced church windows on the rim of the glass. This single-varietal Italian wine reveals delightfully expressive notes of black cherries, morello cherries, damsons, and plums in the glass. Nuances of cocoa bean, cinnamon, and forest floor join in. The Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo presents itself to the connoisseur as delightfully dry. This red wine never appears rough or austere, as one might expect from a wine in the top-quality segment. On the finish, this well-ageable wine from the Piedmont wine-growing region finally delights with a beautiful length. Hints of damson and black cherry reappear. Vinification of the Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo This red wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Nebbiolo. Only immaculate grapes were used for this wonderfully powerful single-varietal wine from Cavallotto. Without question, the Langhe Nebbiolo is also shaped by the climatic and stylistic factors of Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC. In the truest sense of the word, this Italian can be described as an Old World wine that presents itself in an extraordinarily impressive way. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in large wooden vats at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months in oak barrels.
