Nascetta

Nascetta is white grape variety native to Piemonte region in Italy. It was, for a while, on verge of extinction, later saved by Piemontese winemakers for its potential of making great wines.

Nascetta is a white wine grape variety, with a bright yellow hue. It is known for its intense and aromatic nose, with notes of apricot, peach, and citrus. On the palate, it has a powerful flavor, with a high acidity, minerality, and a full-bodied structure.

Nascetta is an ancient variety, found in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. It is mostly grown in the Langhe hills, near the towns of Novello and Castagnole Lanze. Nascetta is a low-yielding variety, and is usually grown on terraced hillsides. The vines are trained in the Guyot system, and harvested by hand. The wines are usually fermented in stainless steel, with no oak aging. Nascetta can be made in a variety of styles, from still to sparkling. The still wines are usually bottled young, and have a bright, fruity character. The sparkling wines are made in the traditional method, and have a creamy texture and a long finish. The bright acidity and intense aromas of Nascetta make it an ideal wine for food pairing. It pairs well with seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes.

Nascetta is a rare variety, with only a few producers making wine from it.

The wines are unique, and have a distinctive character that sets them apart from other Italian whites.
