Langhe Nebbiolo 2024
The Langhe DOC Nebbiolo by Scarzello (a historic, family-run estate rooted in the village of Barolo) is the quintessential expression of classic Langhe Nebbiolo: elegant, succulent, immediately approachable yet underpinned by noble structure and remarkable balance. Conceived as the welcoming introduction to the estate's Barolo lineup, this wine is crafted from grapes sourced partly from the esteemed Sarmassa cru alongside select plots in the communes of Alba and Sinio.
Cellar protocols strictly honor traditional artisanal standards: following an extended skin maceration lasting 20 to 25 days in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, the wine matures for 6 to 8 months in large 25-hectoliter Slavonian oak casks and 500-600 liter tonneaux, followed by at least six months of bottle refinement. This thoughtful approach safeguards pure varietal fruit, merging crisp freshness with fine-grained tannins and subtle spice.
