'La Court' Nizza DOCG Reserve Michele Chiarlo 2019

The Court Nizza DOCG Riserva is a full-bodied and intense red wine, produced by the Michele Chiarlo company, one of the most interesting names in modern Piedmontese viticulture. This label is obtained from the vinification of only grapes of the native Barbera variety. The characteristics of the land on which the vineyards are located are unique. The main components of marl, clay and limestone are combined with percentages of sand and silt: these nutrients help to give the berries a very complex sensory profile. The work is rigorous between the rows facing south-west and cultivated with the Guyot method. After the meticulous harvest, the vinification begins with a 12-day fermentation in oak vats. The first refinement process, which lasts a year, involves the use of barriques, while the subsequent rest in glass continues after bottling for another year. The Court Nizza DOCG Riserva can also be enjoyed after 5 years of careful storage in the cellar.
