Livia Fontana - Langhe DOC Rosso Insieme
2019
75cl
Grapes: Barbera and Nebbiolo
Production area: Castiglione Falletto, altitude 300-350 masl
Harvest: manual in baskets with selection of bunches from mid-September to mid-October.
Vinification: selection of the grapes on a vibrating table, soft pressing, fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature with frequent pumping over and délestages. Maceration of about 15 days.
Refinement: about 30 months in traditional oak barrels and then in bottles in the underground cellar with controlled temperature until sale.
Organoleptic characteristics: the color is an intense ruby red; the scent is very fine and elegant. The fruit part is well present, with currants and cherries, followed by a vegetable note that recalls pepper peel and finally a splendid note of smoky and graphite. Final with a great gustatory impact with a full and decisive flavour, the tannin is fine and elegant with a good sapidity.
Food pairings: the wine combines the tannins of Nebbiolo with the freshness of Barbera and allows us to combine dishes that vary between succulence and fatness in various parts such as: tajarin with Bra sausage ragout; Chinese sweet and sour pork; roasted tongue and cauliflower cream; Poule de Bresse and crunchy vegetables.
Serving temperature: 16°-18° C.
Conservation: keep the bottles lying down in rooms with a possibly constant temperature. It is a ready-to-drink wine and can be kept in the cellar for 8-10 years.
Available formats: 0.75L / 1.5L / 3L
