Nebbiolo d'Alba Mompissano from Cascina Chicco is a highly esteemed red wine produced in the Piedmont region in northwest Italy. This area is renowned for producing some of Italy's most famous wines, thanks to its unique combination of climate, soil, and grape varieties. The Alba territory, where Cascina Chicco is located, features gentle, fertile hills with predominantly clay and limestone soils. This type of soil is particularly suitable for cultivating Nebbiolo, the grape from which this wine takes its name. Nebbiolo is an indigenous Piedmont grape known for producing wines with great structure and longevity. The vineyards at Cascina Chicco are carefully tended using traditional Piedmontese viticulture techniques. Nebbiolo grapes are hand-harvested in October when they reach optimal ripeness. The production process begins with fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, lasting about two weeks. During this time, the must is regularly pumped over to extract polyphenols and aromas from the skins. After fermentation, the wine is transferred to oak barrels for aging, which lasts at least one year. During this period, the wine gains complexity and structure. Finally, the wine is bottled and left to rest for several months before release. Nebbiolo d'Alba Mompissano from Cascina Chicco is a wine of great elegance and depth, with notes of ripe red fruit, spices, and dried flowers. On the palate, it is full and enveloping, with soft tannins and a long, persistent finish. It pairs perfectly with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses.
