Maretti Langhe Nebbiolo 2021 (Italy)
"The wine has a complex and enticing flavour profile with notes of dark berries, dried herbs, earthy mushrooms, cured meat, and fine leather. It has excellent weight and fine texture, wonderfully framed by grainy tannins, leading to a superbly long, structured finish. At its best: now to 2031" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2024
With the alps on three sides in the country's mountainous North West, Piedmont creates some of Italy's finest red wines. The elegant and complex wine displays the lifted aromatics, bright red fruits and fine tannins so expressive of Langhe Nebbiolo. Red cherry, new leather, a little mint, spice and orange peel. Tannin is present, but supple, delivering a little rusty grip to the wine, finishing well.
The 2021 weather performed, with high temperature differentials between day and night offering the fruit a variety of conditions for ripening and thriving. A healthy harvest producing quality wines.
Vinified in open ferments with daily pumpovers. The Nebbiolo is immediately separated from skins for pressing after a short maceration perio. The fruit is matured independently in a mix of small French oak casks and large Slavenian oak for eight mnoths before blending and a further four months ageing in large oak casks.
Piedmont, in the foothills of the Alps in the North West of Italy, is home to the country's finest full-bodied red wines. The greates wines are made from the extremely long lived Nebbiolo. Sourced from vineyards in the small commune of Castiglione Falleto in Piedmont, we are pleased to bring your Maretti's inaugural Barolo from the lauded 2016 vintage.
Castiglione Falletto is one of the communes of the "Langa del Barolo", part of "The wine landscapes of Piedmont: Langhe-Roero and Monferrato", recognized as World Heritage by Unesco in 2014. The sall village is dominated by the presence of the castle of origin medieval whose central tower, high and massive, makes it well visible even from neighbouring towns.
