Sandrone Valmaggiore Nebbiolo D'Alba 2014 Piemont Italien Rotwein

Sandrone Valmaggiore Nebbiolo D'Alba 2014 Italien Piemont Rotwein. Luciano Sandrone, einer der Qualitätsfanatiker aus dem Piemont ... seine Weine sind legendär, vor allem der "Le Vigne" und "Canubi Boschis". Der Valmaggiore, der kleine Barolo, kann vorzüglich altern und bringt sehr viel Nebbiolofreude! Aus den Tiefen des Roero stammen die Trauben für den Nebbiolo Valmaggiore, der ein elegantes Spiel zwischen Fruchtaromen und seidigen Tannin bietet. Feine Frucht- und Minzaromen im Nachhall.

Parker 94/100: Released six years after the harvest, the Luciano Sandrone 2014 Nebbiolo d'Alba Valmaggiore Sibi et Pauci is a special surprise. This wine sits at that perfect intersection between primary and tertiary intensity with bold blackberry and wild berry aromas contrasted against tar, licorice and camphor ash. It's at that ideal spot along the Nebbiolo timeline, and if you have a bottle, I enthusiastically recommend that you pop the cork tonight with a special meal. I'm thinking veal cooked with a wild porcini mushroom sauce.

The amphitheater. The Valmaggiore vineyard in the Roero hills, on the left bank of the Tanaro river, is one of the best historic sources of origin and quality. Already in the nineteenth century, the Nebbiolo grapes grown in this vineyard were so highly regarded that they dictated the price for the entire territory. In the 1990s, the first sight of Valmaggiore was like a bolt of lightning for Luciano, Luca and Barbara: they fell in love at first sight. This was not only for the history and the long viticultural tradition, but also for the particular uniqueness of those sandy soils combined with the microclimate.

All "hand-made". Our Valmaggiore is an amphitheater facing the south, with full exposure to the sun. Here, nature is rich and vigorous. The ground is soft and sandy, the slopes extremely steep. Already in the planting of the vineyard, the respect for nature and traditions were strategic. This respect is present every day: we cultivate by hand, row by row, from bud break to when we harvest the ripest grapes; we make our vineyard a laboratory for healthy and well-cultivated fruit.

The Nebbiolo in Roero. In Roero, a significant historic agricultural richness has been preserved, and not only in viticulture. Here, Nebbiolo is distinguished for its finesse and elegance and we, like those in the past who were also proud and convinced, wish that our Valmaggiore wine expresses all the grace and refinement of Nebbiolo.
