The Giuseppe Rinaldi winery in Barolo is one of the most traditional names in the Langhe. Giuseppe "Beppe" Rinaldi, known as Citrico, defended a way of making wine built on few interventions, native yeasts and large casks all his life; today his daughters Carlotta and Marta carry it forward.
The Langhe Nebbiolo comes from grapes grown in the same areas as the Barolos, between Barolo and Novello, and is fermented with native yeasts. It ages for about 18 months in large Slavonian oak casks: a classic Nebbiolo that many regard as a little Barolo.
Ruby with garnet reflections; on the nose floral notes, small red fruit, spice and a mineral touch. Elegant, with good body and fine tannins. Serve at 18-20 °C with tajarin, braised meats, red meats and medium-aged cheeses.
