From Tenuta Il Cascinone, this single estate Nebbiolo has an appealing and early-drinking style.
The Nebbiolo vines were planted in 2005 on the lower slopes of a south-facing and very steep site at the south-east corner of the ‘Soliti’ plot - less than 1 hectare in total. After harvesting, and 15-16 days on skins, the wine is fermented in stainless steel, followed by up to two years in oak - 75% in botti and 25% in barriques (not new).
Avamposti Monferrato Nebbiolo Altrove has lightly floral aromas with notes of plum and berry fruit balanced by savoury characters. The palate is juicy with ripe plum and black cherry, supple tannins and a lightly spicy finish.
Enjoy with steak, roast vegetables, and tomato-based pasta dishes.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
