2022 Vietti Perbacco - Langhe - 3 Magnums (1.5L)

"Perbacco" is a red wine from the historic Langarola Vietti winery that embodies several souls, those of the different terroirs from which the Nebbiolo grapes are sourced to produce Barolo. In fact, the king of wines of Piedmont is born, by the winery’s choice, from the various parcels vinified separately that best express the vintage. The other resting liquids in the barrels are used for other diverse expressions. In search of the most coherent expression!

The Nebbiolo vines have an average age of 35 years and come from several vineyards, some classified as Barolo Cru: Bricco Boschis, Liste, Brunella, Pernano, Crocetta, Fossati, Ravera and Novello, the same ones from which Barolo Castiglione is obtained. The alcoholic fermentation lasts 3–4 weeks in stainless steel at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, the wines are allowed to rest, always separately, in barriques and large casks where malolactic fermentation takes place. In particular, only some lots obtained from the Cru finish aging inside the barriques, then complete this phase in large casks for 24 months, while the rest finish aging only in large casks, always for the same period. At this point, the winery determines which wine will be blended in steel to give birth to Nebbiolo "Perbacco". The rest will continue aging.

Once poured into the glass, "Perbacco" presents itself with a deep ruby red color, tending toward garnet. On the nose, fruity notes, menthol, oriental spices, memories of red rose and black tea emerge. On the palate a subtle tannin arises, with a delicate sip, thanks also to the two months’ rest in steel after the blend. It continues in an elegant manner; it is a wine of fine intensity and finishes with a certain persistence. The most prized Langhe territory at your reach in a single sip!
