DOC Langhe Nebbiolo: Vines
The DOC Langhe Nebbiolo is a single varietal wine, and therefore can be made exclusively by Nebbiolo grapes
85% Nebbiolo. 15% other grape varieties, with similar-color non-aromatic berries, suitable for cultivation in the Piedmont region
Piedmont’s noblest red grape needs to grow in a carefully chosen environment and growing conditions. It sprouts early and the fruit generally ripens in mid October. The bunch is medium to large, a winged pyramid shape with medium to small grapes having a consistent blue-black skin with violet nuances. This is the vine that produces Barolo and Barbaresco, Nebbiolo d’Alba... you can read more about Nebbiolo here.

LoveLanghe Shop is a niche of great wines from the Langhe area: some unknown to most, some already quite recognized but perhaps hard to find in the big distribution, others in which we see potential but that have yet to grow.
Bottles are shipped directly from the winery to your home, with no intermediary.
