DESCRIPTION:

Since the 1890’s the Rosso family has farmed vineyards in Serralunga d’Alba, notably the Crus of Cerretta, La Serra, Broglio, Meriame, Sorano, Costa Bella, Lirano & Damiano. During the early 1980’s Giovanni Rosso restructured the vineyards with the aim of growing the best fruit.  The Giovanni Rosso cantina (winery) is a traditional family cascina, or farmhouse, it houses the fermentation, ageing, bottling and labeling facilities as well as the offices.

TASTING NOTES:

“A delicious wine to drink now and over the next few years. Fresh, floral and nicely layered, the 2013 impresses for its balance and class. Sweet red berries, mint and licorice linger on the perfumed finish. In a year in which so many wines are quite big, Rosso’s Langhe Nebbiolo stands out for its freshness and lift. This is a terrific showing.” ANTONIO GALLONI – 2013 VINTAGE, 2014 NOT YET RATED
