Josetta Saffirio Langhe Nebbiolo 2016
This Langhe Nebbiolo DOC is an interesting blend between the nebbiolo, the land prince's vine and the merlot, noble vine of Bordeaux. The two grapes do not mature at the same time, so vinification takes place separately.

Colour

Vibrant garnet color.

Bouquet

The olfactory profile is clear and wide, with fragrant notes of raspberry, red fruit and dried fruit.

Flavour

On the palate it expresses a good balance between fruity aromas, round tannins and fresh freshness. Thanks to the presence of the merlot, the wine is very harmonious and velvety.

Pairing

It is a wine of good texture, well suited to second courses of red meat and white meats with elaborate preparations. Great even with first courses seasoned with savory meat sauces.
