Gian Luca Colombo – Langhe Pinot Nero – 2021
A world-famous grape, different nuances from terroir to terroir, one of the reasons Pinot Noir is found almost everywhere is its great adaptability to every type of climate, here in the Langhe it has found a very exclusive area. For Gianluca this grape variety means the beginning of his story as a winemaker by focusing in the value of this variety in a land of native red grapes, the vineyards are located near Barolo and in the town of Dogliani, which share soils with the presence of clay. The grapes are vinified in contact with the skins for 30 days in steel containers in order to extract the minimal peculiarities, aging takes place in used barriques (also of 4 passage) for 9 months before bottling. Very striking as a label, red fruit aromas accompanied by underbrush and spicy notes but it is in the mouth that it proves elegant and harmonious with fine tannins and very pleasant drinkability. Try it!

Description
A true man of Langa who grew up in contact with a reality of great winemaking tradition, Gianluca Colombo became yet another enthusiast who soon made it a full-time job and a new brand of life. After graduating in oenology in Alba and consulting at various wineries, his winery saw the light in 2011 in Roddi together with his wife where he focused on the Pinot Noir variety as the start of his project. From a purely agricultural mood and with limited production, his wines are very territorial where respect for the environment in its diversity is at the base following a philosophy without preconceptions where nature and its rhythms count. In fact, the wine itself presents its own evolution where vinifications change every year, no clarifications and filtrations are made, there is no predominant use of wood but it is only interpretation of the succession of events. Great care and commitment to obtain a wine that reflects grape variety, terroir and vintage fruit of one of the many stories of Langa.
