Region: Italy, Piedmont

Grape Variety: Nebbiolo

Background: The Batasiolo Estate has vineyards holdings located within the prized Barolo wine-growing areas: Batasiolo, Morino, Cerequio and Brunate in La Morra; Boscareto and the historical Briccolina in Serralunga d’Alba; Bricco di Vergne and Zonchetta in Barolo; Tantesi and Bussia Bofani in Monforte d’Alba. Set amidst the gentle contours of the Batasiolo vineyard, the Estate cannot be understood without admiring the expanses of its vineyards in the finest and most important wine-growing villages of the Langhe.

Tasting Notes: Fresh and floral on the nose with excellent intensity. Hits of citrus and a touch of almond to finish, hallmark of the Cortese grape.

Food Pairing: Appetisers, pasta and risotto, delicate fish and white meat. Delightful recipes based on vegetables. Excellent as an aperitif.
