    Notify me when this product is available:

    A family enterprise committed to social responsibility and sustainability, Josetta Saffirio farm is steeped in Italian custom. The title of head winemaker has been passed down through five generations of women, culminating in their current matriarch Sara Vezza. Her dynamic Nebbiolo offers notes of dried fruit, raspberry, and rich spice with a round soft mouthfeel. A lovely snapshot of how traditional wines can develop in the hands of a careful and loving caretaker.

    About The Varietal

    Nebbiolo

    Nebbiolo is the prominent grape variety responsible for the high-quality red wines found in northwestern Italy, especially the robust reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. These wines are often characterized by a unique aroma that combines scents of "tar and roses." Nebbiolo wines typically exhibit moderate body, robust tannins, elevated acidity, and are highly sought after, often commanding premium prices.
