Luciano Sandrone Nebbiolo d'Alba Valmaggiore 2022

Luciano Sandrone Nebbiolo d'Alba 'Valmaggiore' is a masterclass in single-vineyard Nebbiolo, sourced from the steep, amphitheater-like slopes of the historic Valmaggiore vineyard in Roero. Rooted in fine, sand-dominant soils, this site yields a Nebbiolo of extraordinary perfume, lift, and silky refinement compared to its more muscular Barolo siblings. Vinified with gentle extraction and aged in large neutral oak casks, the wine opens with vibrant red berries, crushed roses, wild herbs, and a subtle spice streak. Supported by fine-grained, chalky tannins and energetic acidity, it delivers immediate charm and elegance alongside impressive cellaring potential.
