The 2021 Langhe Bricco del Drago by Poderi Colla is a still red wine from the renowned region of Piemonte, Italy. This DOC is born from a careful selection of Dolcetto and Nebbiolo grapes grown in west-facing vineyards at an altitude between 330 and 400 metres. The separate vinification of the two grape varieties, with calibrated macerations, allows for the expression of a complex and well-balanced aromatic profile, typical of this fascinating denomination. Vintage: 2021 Alcohol content: 14.5 Harvest: Manual Notes: Very intense and deep ruby colour with violet hues typical of Dolcetto. Elegant aroma due to the perfect fusion of the finesse of Nebbiolo with the volume of Dolcetto. A repertoire of spicy and vinous notes typical of the grapes at maturity. On the palate, it possesses concentration and length, allowing for a surprising ageing potential. Vineyard: West-facing, altitude between 330 and 400 metres. Winemaking/Aging: The two grapes are vinified separately, as they mature at different times: the blending of the two wines is done at a later stage. The maceration lasts about 5/8 days for Dolcetto and about 10/12 days for Nebbiolo at a maximum temperature of about 25°C and 30°C, respectively. Yield per hectare: 5,000 vines per hectare. Perfect for pairing with traditional Piedmontese dishes, the 2021 Langhe Bricco del Drago is a wine to be savoured slowly and attentively, ideal for those wishing to discover an authentic and refined expression of the territory. A recommended purchase to enrich one's cellar with a quality and character label.
