Benevelli Piero - Langhe Nebbiolo DOC 2021
Beautiful traditional Nebbiolo from Benevelli. Clear, washing and pure. Lots of fruit and nicely present tannins. An almost transparent, rust-red color in the glass. Black and red fruits predominate, blackberries and cherries. Slightly spicy and firm aftertaste. Pleasant and spicy in the mouth, full and characteristic, dry and clean on the tongue. Pure Nebbiolo as Nebbiolo was meant to be!

BENEVELLI PIERO
The authentic winery Benevelli Piero is located in Monforte d'Alba in the frazione San Giuseppe. Today the house is run by Massimo, a modest man who produces some beautiful wines in the traditional way. For the maturation of red wines for storage (except for Barolo Mosconi). only large wood is used, with the exception that the Barolos are raised in tonneaux for the first year. This produces three quality Barolos, from his three different vineyards, all located in Monforte and of which Le Coste is located next to his cantina. Massimo is of the old school, there is not even a sign on the road to indicate that you are actually at a winery, let alone that there is a website available for this quality house. These are the houses we love. Authentic, honest, with respect for the country and its traditions.
A winery after our own hearts!
