***CASE10 SELECTION***
NOTES: The grapes that are destined for this ultra-premium wine come from the highly-respected Santo Stefano vineyard which is known to make some of Piemonte’s finest Nebbiolo wines. As with the other Castello di Neive Barbarescos, this wine is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, but the grapes used to make this wine represent the finest selection of grapes, picked at optimum ripeness.
Fermented and macerated for 12-14 days. Aged for 12-24 months in French oak barrels. After aging, the wine goes through natural settling, then is bottled to continue its maturation.
TASTING NOTES: Medium garnet in color with reddish-brown reflections, intense aromas of black cherries, dried roses, licorice, and potpourri. The aging regime on this wine has made the tannins velvety without taking away from the wine’s age-worthiness.
FOOD PAIRING: Pairs well with elegant dishes such as perfectly-grilled steaks with red wine sauces, slow-braised beef with pearl onions, and roasted lamb shanks.
