Cascina Fontana Nebbiolo d'Alba 2021 DOC 0.75l

Cascina Fontana Nebbiolo d'Alba 2021 DOC 0.75l is a bottle that tells a story of authentic Piedmont, born among the vineyards of the Alba area, where Nebbiolo expresses its taut elegance and depth, offering a firm yet inviting identity that blends tradition and modernity without unnecessary frills. The Cascina Fontana winery was founded as a family business that has placed respect for the raw material, careful management of the vineyard, and meticulous attention to the processes leading to the finished wine at the heart of its philosophy: calibrated pruning, manual harvesting at the perfect level of ripeness, careful selection of the grapes, and a vinification that favors the purity of the fruit without forcing, with delicate management of temperature and fermentation that preserves freshness and tension. The producer's history is one of focused steps, deep ties to the territory, and a constant dedication to deep-rooted winemaking traditions, reinterpreted with aesthetic flair and a constant search for balance between power and finesse. These elements define a company vision focused on the longevity of the wine and the harmony between varietal expression and geographical context. The production philosophy is characterized by a focus on restoring the vitality of the grapes: controlled yield, minimal intervention in the maceration process, and a maturation that tends to moderate the impact of the wood, offering a clean aromatic profile and a highly elegant flavor texture. Distinctive and unique elements emerge from the combination of a bouquet of ripe red fruits, floral notes of violet, hints of undergrowth, and a light spiciness reminiscent of pink pepper, cocoa, and orange peel. The palate presents fine tannins, a firm yet polished structure, and an acidity that supports the fruit without ever being harsh. The finish remains long and clean, with a mineral edge and a persistence that invites another sip. Within the Cascina Fontana range, this 2021 Nebbiolo d'Alba occupies a prominent position as an accessible representative of the company's identity, capable of pairing with delicate pasta dishes, mushroom risotto, or mature cheeses, while also offering a reliable foundation for structured pairings. It's a wine that invites exploration while remaining enjoyable in everyday contexts, without sacrificing a recognizable and consistent personality. In keeping with the STELT positioning, this bottle of Cascina Fontana Nebbiolo d'Alba 2021 is designed for those seeking an authentic wine, conceived for the table and for moments of sincere sharing, capable of expressing the terroir with understated authority and a presence respectful of time.
