Langhe Nebbiolo Usignolo, Cascina Bruciata

New

The Nightingale wants to be a Nebbiolo of absolute pleasure and depth, even for those who approach the greatness of this grape for the first time. To achieve this goal, a rigorous selection of the grapes is followed by refinement which favors the softness of the tannins and the pleasantness of the drink while preserving the freshness of the aromas. This Nebbiolo offers a splendid example of a full and balanced wine: the nose has notes of rose, strawberry and violet; the taste gives, at the same time, elegance and fullness, with tannins present but delicately harmonized. It goes well with second courses or aged cheeses, with the typical Piedmontese bagna caoda or with grilled red meats and game

Tasting Notes

Usignolo is a Nebbiolo that delivers a highly pleasurable and profound tasting experience, even for those at their first experience with the grandiosity of this grape variety. In order to reach this goal, after an accurate selection of the grapes, the wine is aged which tends to soften the tannins and makes it go down more smoothly, preserving the freshness of the aromas. This Nebbiolo is a splendid example of a full-bodied balanced wine. The bouquet is characterized by notes of rose, strawberry and violet; on the palate it is elegant and full, with tannins in delicate harmony. It goes perfectly with second courses or ripened cheeses, with the traditional bagna caoda from Piedmont or with grilled red meat and game
