The grapes come from the young Nebbiolo vines grown in the Barbaresco Giacone vineyard.

Vines: of the Langhe rosato 2017 Cascina Alberta have an age ranging from 5 to 10. The municipality is that of Treiso.

The vineyard has an average altitude of 350 meters above sea level and has a sun exposure that goes from South to South – West.

The yield per hectare is 70 hectoliters.

Vintage 2017 was characterized by a mild early spring with little rainfall. In May there were good rains, while summer was hot. The harvest was anticipated in early September.

After soft pressing, the must was left in contact with the skins for 6 hours. Once only the liquid is dissolved and the indigenous yeasts are added, the alcoholic fermentation begins in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 20 °.

It refines in the same steel containers at low temperature so as not to let it undergo the malolactic transformation. In March it is bottled and after a month entered the trade.

Langhe Rosato 2017 Cascina Alberta

Claret pink, of a fascinating shade.

The nose has splendid aromas of wild berries, red currants in particular and pink rose petals. Even some sweet spices. On the whole, as for the color, even the aromas are fascinating. Surprising for an Italian rosé.

On the palate it is full and even rich, with a slight tannic presence to give good structure. Also minerality and acidity are sustained, for a really pleasant whole. On the back smell aromas of dried fruit arrive.

Among rosé wines, that of Cascina Alberta is really an excellent wine, able to accompany various dishes. From raw meat appetizers with truffle slices, to simple and unstructured pasta dishes. Very useful to those who, not appreciating white wines, wanted to use it with fish dishes.
