Gianfranco Bovio
With Walter and Fabio Porasso at the helm, the Bovio estate consistently produces classic wines from venerable vineyards in the village of La Morra. Not only are they supreme artisans in their craft, they are close friends and allies of APS (the importer of this wine). The wines of Bovio are exceptional in their precision and consistency in purity and longevity.
Nebbiolo di Langhe
All Annunziata, all delicious. The Annunziata is a belt of land that has had Nebbiolo planted to it since the 12th century. And where is it, you ask? Right between Gattera and Arborina, of course.
La Morra, Piedmont
Filled with large flat stones, the Annunziata region has been associated with Nebbiolo of depth and complexity for decades. Try this one on for size: roses, fresh earth, and cherry pit flavors abound. Drink this while waiting for your Barolo to age.
Vinification
Vinified first in steel and then on to old barrels.
Tasting Notes
Smoke, tar, cherry and rose notes.
