WINE DESCRIPTION

Mazzoni Ghemme dei Mazzoni is a pure Nebbiolo wine produced with gentle cultivation methods. The vineyards are nurtured using only pruned vine cuttings and organic fertilizers to enrich the soil. The grapes undergo a 12-15 day fermentation on the skins in stainless steel tanks, with careful pump-overs and punch-downs to enhance extraction. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 24 months in large oak barrels, allowing it to develop depth and complexity, before resting an additional six months in the bottle. This aging process brings out Nebbiolo's characteristic elegance and structure, reflective of the Ghemme terroir.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

On the nose, Mazzoni Ghemme dei Mazzoni presents a bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by subtle floral notes.There is also a hint of spice, with delicate aromas of cinnamon and cloves. The palate is equally impressive, with a harmonious balance between fruitiness and acidity. The flavors of red berries continue to shine, complemented by hints of licorice and earthy undertones. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and velvety texture. Mazzoni Ghemme dei Mazzoni is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has great aging potential. With time, it will develop even more complexity and depth.
