La Ca' Nova - Langhe Nebbiolo made from the same vines as Barbaresco, aged for one year in large oak barrels.

La Ca’ Nova – Langhe Nebbiolo – 2022

Compared to Barbaresco here you wanted a lot of finesse and agility of drinking, the world of Langhe Nebbiolo basically represents this, a wine of the everyday not designed for long aging but creative and different every year in style. As if it were a miniature Barbaresco, in fact the grapes come from the same vineyards but only from the youngest plants following the same quality criteria. All fermented in steel tanks with 16-18 days maceration and an aging in 30 HL oak barrels for 14 months followed by another 4 months in bottle. A wine endowed with nice balance with typical grape aromas from red fruit to violets, the palate is pleasant, immediate with well-integrated acidity and tannins.

Description

Small and rural, few labels produced, however, what makes Ca’ Nova special is not only the vineyard landscapes in which it is nestled but the great work in producing one of Piedmont’s two most important DOCGs: Barbaresco. A family-run winery located in the town of Barbaresco, founded between 1920/30 and always producing wine, they have reached the 3rd generation of winemakers where the current owners, the Rocca brothers, are expanding its boundaries. In a total of 14 hectares with an annual production of 50000 bottles they grow Barbera, Dolcetto and Nebbiolo where for the latter the vineyards are distributed in the Cru of Montefico and Montestefano destined for the production of their 3 Barbareschi. A lot of work is practiced in the vineyard so as to help the plant for higher quality through natural practices, in the winery fermentations are not controlled and they practice splinting i.e. maceration with post-fermentation pumping over so as to have even more extraction, large barrels are used for aging. Traditionalists in manner and style, one of the innumerable values on which the winery rests.
