Monferrato Rosso doc Pinot Nero Saracco 2006

Red wine endowed with great personality, grown from the cultivation of Pinot Nero in an historical area that is favourable for Nebbiolo’s cultivation. This wine shows an intense ruby red colour, with some purple reflexes: its smell derives from the combination between the traditional, soft perfume of red fruits, like blueberry, blackberry and raspberry, and a balanced taste. Endowed with a long aromatic persistence, this wine is perfect in combination with meat’s starters, typical salami of Piedmont, second courses based on meat, first courses and medium seasoned cheeses.

Saracco’s winery is situated in Castiglione Tinella, a locality halfway between the Langhe hills and the Monferrato area. The cave was found by Luigi Saracco at the beginning of 1900; later Luigi’s son, Giovanni, enter this estate in 1951 and he buys more and more territories, up to 20 hectares of vineyards. In 1986 Paolo, Giovanni’s son, joins the family’s cave and decides to modernize it, but above all he establishes to sell the wine in bottles. Today the property counts 46 hectares of vineyards and it is become a full stop for who is passionate of Moscato wine.
