Origin

Nebbiolo d'Alba is produced in the Alba area, located in the Piedmont region of northern Italy. This region is renowned for its ideal terroir for Nebbiolo grapes, characterized by calcareous clay soils and a continental climate with warm days and cool nights.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, a noble Italian grape variety known for its high tannins, acidity, and complex aromatic profile.

Production

The Nebbiolo grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a controlled fermentation process at the Massucco winery. The wine is typically aged in stainless steel tanks or large oak casks to preserve the grape’s aromatic intensity and structure, before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Bright ruby red with garnet reflections.
  • Aroma: Intense bouquet featuring floral notes of violet, along with hints of cherry, raspberry, and subtle spicy undertones.
  • Palate: Dry and medium-bodied with firm tannins, balanced acidity, and a persistent finish showcasing red fruit and light earthy nuances.

Food pairings

Nebbiolo d'Alba pairs excellently with a variety of traditional Italian dishes and rich flavors, including:

  • Roasted or grilled red meats
  • Game dishes such as venison or wild boar
  • Mushroom risottos and truffle-based dishes
  • Aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino
  • Hearty pasta with meat sauces
