Cantina Produttori di Nebbiolo di Carema - Carema Selezione 2016 (Pre-arrival) (750ml)
This item is available for pre-arrival.
Carema Selezione is a new wine to celebrate the 60th vintage for the Produttori di Carema. The grapes are selected from vineyards known to produce more intense wines. The wine then spends two years in large oak barrels, followed by an additional year in neutral French oak barriques.
Selezione is the most intense wine in the Carema lineup. There is more of everything: Fruit is riper, and the wine is the most full bodied. The wine begins to have the grainy tannin you might find in a Barolo, but countered by refreshing mountain acidity. The fruit intensity and the extra year aging create a huge color variation in the glass, from a brick color at the core, to a pale orange on the rim. It's stunning. This is a dry, still, purely red-fruited wine, ranging from strawberry to cherry to tomato, and does not cross the line the into black or stewed fruit.
