Description

A classic expression of Alto-Piemonte Nebbiolo with a splash of Vespolina, this 2016 Ghemme shows an enticing garnet hue with a fragrant nose of dried cherry, rose petal, raspberry and subtle violet, layered with earthy tobacco and mineral nuances from extended aging. On the palate it’s medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity and savory red fruit framed by spice and mineral complexity, finishing long and refined. Pair it with braised short ribs, roasted game bird (like duck or pheasant), or aged Italian cheeses such as Castelmagno or Parmigiano-Reggiano, where the wine’s structure and aromatic depth complement rich, savory flavors.
