Nebbiolo d'Alba 'Valmaggiore' Bruno Giacosa 2019

The Nebbiolo Valmaggiore by Giacosa is a wine of great elegance and territorial adherence, with interesting aging prospects. A name that resonates with legend is Bruno Giacosa, a historic winemaker known for some of the most exciting bottles of Barolo and Barbaresco. A preference for an extraordinary grape, such as Nebbiolo, always interpreted in a classic and unobtrusive manner. Large barrels, spontaneous fermentations, healthy agriculture. All the prerequisites for a great wine, a category that also includes this splendid Nebbiolo for its quality-price ratio. A piece of Langa, always to have in the cellar.

The Valmaggiore red by Giacosa is made from pure Nebbiolo grapes from the Valmaggiore vineyard, located near Alba. This wine is part of the line labeled as Casa Vinicola Bruno Giacosa, meaning products made only with grapes received from carefully selected local suppliers, a practice extremely widespread in the Langhe. Absolutely healthy grapes, which are fermented in steel containers, while the aging takes place for 12 months in large barrels of wood. Further resting in the bottle before being put on the market.

The Valmaggiore wine by Giacosa fills the glass with its typical garnet color. A noble Nebbiolo, makes things clear right from the first sniff, where it dispenses notes of dog rose, wilted violets, raspberry, and balsamic hints reminiscent of licorice. Composure and elegance, in the highest of meanings. A sip that does not lack typicity, has structure and freshness, but impresses with its harmonious nature and marked by a finely grained tannin. A great bottle, suitable for any occasion.
