Franco Serra Langhe Nebbiolo 2022

Franco Serra is produced by the Sperone family who have been making affordable premium wines for four generations. In 1983, the family purchased 75 acres of prime vineyards in Piedmont and built a new winery in the small town of Mombaruzzo just outside Monferrato. They farm growing sustainable viticulture methods and are certified by  the "Confederazione Italiana Agricoltori". 

Select grapes are hand harvested. Three weeks maceration is followed by four weeks of fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The wine is aged for 6 months in large oak barrels (20% new), and 3 months in bottle before release. Pungent dried fruit and herbal aromas. Dry and medium-full bodied with robust tannins, bright acidity and pretty red fruits. Excellent with aged cheeses, rich stews and grilled meat.
