The Wine (3 bottles):
1 bottle of Barbera d'Alba "Piani" DOC, 2021, PELISSERO, PIEDMONT, ITALY
The gentle slope of this part of the hill (“Piani” in Italian means flat) and the higher percentage of clay have created here a perfect soil for the Barbara variety. 100% Barbera. Maceration in stainless steel cask, then ageing for about 8-9 months in oak barrels (30-40% in barrique and the remaining in 50 hl barrels). Notes of blackberry and plum. The colour is red ruby bright and intense. Barbera’s amplitude is very interesting together with its persistent finish.
1 bottle of Langhe DOC Nebbiolo, 2021, PELISSERO, PIEDMONT, ITALY
100% Nebbiolo from across their vineyard holdings, mostly younger vines, short maceration and a mix of barrique and large barrel aging to preserve freshness.
1 bottle of Barberesco DOCG Nubiola, 2020, PELISSERO, PIEDMONT, ITALY
100% Nebbiolo. Fermented and macerated in stainless steel with frequent battonage before aging in a mix of 50L oak casks and small barrique. A nose that is classically Barbaresco in its mix of tart cranberry and other red fruit, violets and other floral notes, with a background of herbal brightness. Intense ruby robe. Remarkably soft and silky at the opening, the tannins build up with a few sips to remind you that this is still Nebbiolo.
Pelissero has been winemaking since 1960 using vineyeards that span fourty-two hectares in Langhe, part of the Piedmont region in Italy. They use only grapes indigenous to the region, that grow on their own estate. It takes passion, commitment to the land and hard work in the vineyards and cellar, to always endeavour to make high qulaity wines, the only way they know how to get real satisfaction. Research in the vineyards and, successively, in the cellar never stops here, and they hope that this will bring about further improvements to their wines.
