Vino Rosso "Rosso della Motta" 2021
Nebbiolo takes its classic form in this red, which is made from vineyards in the villages of Mottalciata and Castellengo. Aged in a combination of stainless steel and used Slavonian oak, Rosso Della Motta shows Nebbiolo’s true character without overt oak influence in a wine that is nuanced and elegant.
