Region: Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC, Piedmont, Italy (Diano d'Alba)

The Producer
Brangero is a third-generation family estate in Diano d'Alba, positioned between Barolo and Barbaresco, run today by Marco Brangero. The estate's vineyards sit on rare Diano Sandstone, a sandy-calcareous clay soil that Brangero describes as a bridge between the power of Barolo and the elegance of Barbaresco.
The Wine
"Concrete Legacy" is fermented and aged entirely in concrete tanks rather than oak, a choice that preserves brightness, minerality, and natural acidity while letting the fruit lead. The 2023 comes from a low-yielding, aromatically pure vintage, with lively red berry and subtle floral aromas, a delicate mineral edge, and fine, silky tannins that make it equally at home with casual bites or refined plates.

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.
