Wine Description:
The Dragon symbolizes bravery, and this artwork was the final creation of our beloved Gianni Gallo, in line with his aspirations. Langhe DOC Bianco Dragon by Luigi Baudana is a unique field blend of white varieties grown side by side in Piedmont. Dragon grapes, the most precious, are harvested first each year. Fermentation takes place in vertical vats over 7-15 days, followed by aging in stainless-steel tanks until spring, allowing the wine to reach full harmony. It offers a pale yellow color, dry aromas of stone, flowers, and grass, a slightly savory and fresh taste with warm undertones, defining our Langhe Bianco.
Pros:
  • Unique blend of white grape varieties

Wine Expert Note:

Luigi Baudana Langhe Bianco 'Dragon' is an exquisite wine from the Langhe region in Italy. This white wine is a blend of different grape varieties, carefully selected to create a harmonious and complex flavor profile. On the nose, the Luigi Baudana Langhe Bianco 'Dragon' offers enticing aromas of ripe tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, complemented by delicate floral notes. These aromas are further enhanced by a subtle hint of oak, adding depth and complexity to the bouquet. The palate is equally impressive, with a rich and creamy texture that coats the mouth. The flavors of tropical fruits continue to dominate, accompanied by zesty citrus notes that provide a refreshing acidity. There is also a touch of minerality, which adds a pleasant earthy undertone to the wine. The Luigi Baudana Langhe Bianco 'Dragon' is well-balanced, with a medium body and a long, lingering finish. It is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of dishes. It would be a delightful accompaniment to seafood, grilled vegetables, or creamy pasta dishes.

The vineyards for both Sauvignon Blanc and Carmenere are located along the banks of the Chilcas stream on the San Rafael estate, in the Maule Valley. These are the coolest areas of the property, allowing for the production of grapes with excellent acidity and vibrant aromatic expression. This wine is fresh and aromatic, with balanced natural acidity, blending citrus notes of grapefruit with a touch of tropical fruit and a subtle mineral character. The Carmenere adds spice, while the Sauvignon Blanc contributes citrus brightness. Ideal served at 8ºC, it pairs perfectly with fish, seafood, and fresh salads.
