A sensational 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗯𝗯𝗶𝗼𝗹𝗼, the best ever tasted. An expressive and territorial wine, with a strong stylistic imprint, which I truly feel like rewarding as excellence within its category. This is a necessary introduction, by which I want to explain that my scores never refer to the wine in absolute terms. They evaluate each wine according to its production area and its category. And just to repeat, this one is a top-notch. A bright and brilliant purple-ruby colour. At the nose it’s clean and vertical with hints of pomegranate, red plum, wild and iodine touches. The mouthfeel is taut and broad, with a strong acid vein that supports a marked salinity and a citrusy finish. Great depth and drinkability. - Luca Gardini🔝🍷

Elvio Cogno Description

Deep ruby red in colour with a slight orange edge. Harmonious well-balanced aroma, a pleasant blend of floral, fruity and soft spicy scents, with a sapid finish of rose and violet. Fresh lively bouquet with harmonious tannins, alcohol and balanced acidity. Soft, elegant and full-bodied with a very long aftertaste. Redolent of freshly macerated red berries, raspberry and redcurrant.

Nebbiolo has always been one of the most beautiful grapes of the Langhe, able to express new nuances and emotions to those who cultivate and vinify it with respect. It is a meaningful gift and great ambassador of its land of origins. Montegrilli is born in the vineyards with the goal of becoming a genuine and focused wine, able to show the true personality of Nebbiolo grape. With this in mind, we produce a wine without any aging in wood in order to differentiate it clearly from Barolo, creating a product with great immediacy, freshness and drinkability.
