Langhe Nebbiolo doc Schiavenza 2015

The Nebbiolo of Schiavenza winery is an elegant red wine, made with grapes coming from different vineyards on the Serralunga hills.

With alight ruby red color, at nose it shows floral and fruity bouquet with wide hints of blueberries, wild strawberries in addition to light notes of spices on the final.

In mouth, it is warm and soft with well-balanced tannins and unusual notes of freshness.

It is excellent if drunk in combination with traditional Piedmontese dishes like tagliolini with sausage sauce, game, cured meats and seasoned cheeses.

The Schiavenza winery was founded in Serralunga in 1956.
The origin of the name has to be searched in the past; in fact in times past the Opera Pia Barolo owned both the domain and the lands, and sharecropper called “Schiavenza” in dialect, worked the vineyards. The winery was founded by Alessandria brothers and today is managed by the agronomist Luciano Pira, with his wife Maura and his brother-in-law Walter. In addition to the vineyards in Serralunga district, the winery owns some vineyards in the district of Monforte d'Alba: all of this are used for the production of important Piedmontese red wines.
