Langhe Nebbiolo Regret
One of the greatest grape varieties in the world, Nebbiolo is the prince of vine-growing around the town of Alba. Langhe is the area’s most extensive DOC appellation, encompassing all the other local DOC appellations, including three of the most renowned Italian DOCG wines: Barolo, Barbaresco and Roero. For some years now, Monchiero Carbone have been selecting Nebbiolo grapes grown on these hills for their ideal fragrance and structure, to produce a dry, still red wine which can already express the characteristics of this great variety as early as the first year after the harvest. The grapes used to make “Regret” are fermented following the classic Piedmontese technique of maceration on the skins for at least 15 days. After fermentation, the wine is drawn off into barriques, where it undergoes malolactic fermentation and remains for a period of maturation lasting around six months. It is then bottled late in spring and spends several more months in the peace and quiet of our cellars before it is ready to be enjoyed by our clientele. “Regret” has an alcohol content of 13 degrees, a floral and fruity bouquet typical of the variety, and a wide-ranging taste that manages to be well balanced on account of the perfect equilibrium expressed by its tannins.
