Update 13 07 2025 - only 1 bottle available of this 2020 vintage
The Langhe Nebbiolo is named after a very special person: Don GRANERIS, a priest who lived in Novello at the beginning of the 20th century, remembered by all for his long black suit, his temperament, his stern manner, but also for the advances he brought to our hills and, in particular, to viticulture and oenology. From these vineyards, then owned by the parish, partly come the grapes for the Langhe Nebbiolo: a "stern" wine, sometimes difficult to understand and love right away, but able to reveal its expression later.
