Gabriele Scaglione – Ellis Langhe Bianco – 2015
Langhe Bianco Ellis is made with Arneis grapes from Cornegliano in the Roero, and Chardonnay grapes from Novello in the Langhe. Two grapes as different as the municipalities from which they come! Soils in Roero are rich in sand and minerals where in fact Arneis grape is the main one, in Langhe instead there are layers of clay and limestone giving more structure to wines. In this case Arneis is vinified in steel tanks in order to exalt its aromas and freshness, whereas Chardonnay is aged for one year in barrique. In short, this white wine plays with the union of a local grape with an international one, enhancing the organoleptic characteristics of these two varieties. The 2012 has just been released on the market, this shows Gabriele’s accurate care and knowledge of the raw material. An exquisite white, with aromas of flower and almond and a soft mouthfeel but with great acidity.

Description
I like to define Gabriele Scaglione as an artist, each of his wines is connected to a story expressing pure soul and essence of the vintage and of each particular terroir. He was born in Canelli, in the land of sparkling wines, and he has always been fascinated by the wine world, but his working path was quite different…only about twenty years ago he totally changed his life trying to do what he liked the most: making wine!!! With great research he selected the best exposures and vineyards between Roero, Langa and Monferrato to produce great wines, in small quantities with all respect for nature and for the aging times. Today Gabriele manages about 12 hectares and the winery is located in Canelli. Fun wines and labels, out of the usual schemes but made with great technique!!!!
