Coste della Sesia Nebbiolo “Montecavallo” 2015 Castello di Montecavallo
The Coste della Sesia Nebbiolo “Montecavallo” 2015 from Castello di Montecavallo is one of the most authentic and expressive interpretations of Nebbiolo from Alto Piemonte. This historic region, characterized by volcanic and mineral-rich soils, gives Nebbiolo a distinctive identity: fresher, more vertical and finely textured compared to the expressions from Langhe. The 2015 vintage, balanced and generous, produced perfectly ripe grapes that translate into a wine of harmony and depth.
In the glass, it displays a luminous garnet hue. The nose is refined and layered, combining notes of cherry and raspberry with dried violet, sweet spices, licorice and subtle balsamic nuances. The palate is elegant and beautifully composed: fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity and a mineral backbone create a long and captivating progression. The finish is persistent, clean and delicately savory, a hallmark of Nebbiolo from these northern slopes.
“Montecavallo” is a wine of understated sophistication, ideal for those who appreciate finesse over power. It pairs wonderfully with traditional Piedmontese dishes such as roasted meats, braised beef, game and mature cheeses, yet its grace allows it to shine even with simpler preparations. A bottle that confirms both the value of Castello di Montecavallo and the unique personality of Nebbiolo from Alto Piemonte.
