Description The Sartirano family has been making fine wine in Piedmont for four generations, since 1871. They've gradually built up the estate, adding 27 hectares of Barolo's finest, south-facing vineyards in 1988. In 2002, they purchased the Ghercina property in Langhe's Novello, building a modern cellar, 70% underground to ensure coolness! This wine is pure Pinot Nero, a variety that loves the cool, mountain air of Piedmont’s Langhe region. Paolo Sartirano is the 4th generation winemaker, ageing this delicate, midweight red in French oak barrels for a year to lend light spice notes to the fresh red berry fruit and floral notes. Silky, elegant and long. An ideal red to enjoy alongside white meats, meatier fish like fresh tuna or risotto.
