Nebbiolo Rosé is a distinct grape variety, genetically related to Nebbiolo but with its own unique characteristics.
This variety has always been embraced, particularly in viticultural regions prone to hot summers like Inferno and Sassella. Nebbiolo Rosé offers the advantage of greater resistance to drought compared to its counterpart, Nebbiolo.
The origins of Nebbiolo Rosé remain a subject of speculation. It is uncertain whether it emerged as a result of a natural cross between Nebbiolo Lampia and another yet-to-be-identified variety, or if it is one of the parent varieties of Nebbiolo itself.
With a delicate pale ruby hue, this wine exudes a captivating aroma, offering notes of rose petal, red currant, sour red cherry, marzipan, white pepper, violet, and iris. Its austere character, coupled with mineral nuances, demands years of patience to fully unveil its potential, gradually smoothing out with age.
