Nebbiolo Porello 2025

The Nebbiolo from the Marco Porello winery is a intense and elegant red wine produced in the territory of the Langhe. This label is made from pure Nebbiolo grapes sourced from the Bastia, Tanone, and Camestri vineyards located on hills with a southwest exposure and characterized by steep slopes. The vines, trained using the traditional method of espalier with guyot pruning, are planted in calcareous-sandy soils with marine-origin soils rich in sand, minerals, and fossils. The winery is a family-run business that has transitioned over the years from fruit cultivation, a typical activity of the past in the Roero area, to grape cultivation, now managing 19 hectares of vineyards with great care and respect for the land.

The Nebbiolo from the Langhe of Porello is produced with carefully selected and hand-harvested grapes, generally around the first decade of October. The clusters are then taken to the winery for gentle destemming-crushing and subsequent alcoholic fermentation that occurs at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks.of stainless steel with a maceration on the skins of about 10-12 days. Subsequently, the wine undergoes racking and pressing of the skins, after which it remains in aging in large Slavonian oak barrels for at least 12 months before being bottled and released for sale.
