Tasting notes
Tasting notes
In the glass it shows a deep ruby red colour with refined aromas of black raspberry, green pepper, tobacco and roasted spices. On the palate it displays a perfect balance between power and elegance, with ripe tannins, a full structure and a long and, above all, pleasant mineral finish.
This wine beautifully reflects the expressive character and, above all, the authenticity of the hills of Calosso.
Vinification
Vinification
This Gamba di Pernice L.u.L.O is a rare and, above all, characterful wine from the heart of Piemonte, made from the native grape variety Gamba di Pernice, also known as “partridge's foot”.
After a traditional fermentation with natural yeasts native to the grapes, the wine undergoes a 15 day maceration in stainless steel. It then matures for 10 to 12 months in second use barriques, which refines the wine without dominant oak notes while preserving the fruity character of this grape.
