Vino Rosso “San Giacomo” 2018 – Donalia
The “San Giacomo” 2018 is a wine that embodies the heritage and soul of Donnalia’s winemaking tradition. It comes from vineyards cultivated without interruption since 1950, nestled among the rolling hills and woodland valleys of northern Piedmont. This red blend captures the authentic expression of the Canavese terroir – both complex and balanced, elegant yet deeply rooted in tradition.
Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, preserving the purity of the fruit and the aromatic freshness. The wine then matures in oak tonneaux, where it slowly gains depth, texture, and gentle spicy nuances. The wood influence remains subtle, supporting rather than overshadowing the fruit-driven core.
In the glass, “San Giacomo” shows a deep ruby color with garnet hues. The nose reveals ripe cherry, plum, rosehip, and hints of licorice, followed by balsamic and toasty undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-structured, yet smooth and balanced, with velvety tannins and a long, savory finish.
A perfect match for braised meats, roast dishes, agnolotti with sauce, tajarin, and aged cheeses, “San Giacomo” celebrates the authentic flavors of Piedmont. It’s a wine that combines tradition, craftsmanship, and elegance, offering a taste of Donnalia’s deep connection to its land and history.
