Grapes: 100% Nebbiolo
Body: Medium
Notes: Bright raspberry, violet, and ripe plum with silky tannins and a mineral, dry finish. Baby Barolo vibes without the wait or the price tag.
Pairing: Pasta with rich sauces, braised meats, risotto, or medium-aged cheeses.
Bel Colle Langhe Nebbiolo is crafted by Cantina Bel Colle, a benchmark producer from the historic commune of Verduno in Barolo territory, founded in 1974 and now part of the Bosio family of fourth-generation winemakers. The estate farms 10 hectares with sustainable viticulture — no synthetic treatments, hand-worked vineyards, and only organic preparations. This 100% Nebbiolo is grown on sandy-calcareous soils in the Alba area, gently pressed and fermented at controlled temperatures for 10–12 days with daily pump-overs, then aged 12 months in stainless steel to preserve the grape's vivid, fragrant character. The result is a youthful, approachable Nebbiolo that captures the elegance of Piedmont's noble grape at a fraction of the Barolo price (92 pts, Wine Enthusiast).

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
