Cascina Fontana Langhe Nebbiolo

Cascina Fontana Langhe Nebbiolo 2016

Mario Fontana makes a killer Lanhghe Nebbiolo! The grapes for his nebbiolo comes from the historic vineyard of Castello di Sinio and some from Il Pozzo in Castiglione Falletto.

Fontana makes wines in the traditional way, with large casks, as the wine will reflect. I find this wine to be well balanced and fresh – a very good example of a Langhe Nebbiolo. Hope you enjoy it!
