La Spinetta is a highly prestigious Italian winery with roots in two important Italian regions, Piedmont and Tuscany. From the 1980s, the winery began working with red grape varieties too: Barbera, Barbaresco and Nebbiolo, respecting the terroir and meticulously cultivating certain crus to produce excellent Piedmontese red wines. The project continued into the 2000s in Tuscany with Casanova della Spinetta, cultivating Sangiovese. Spinetta’s Langhe Nebbiolo DOC is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. It is aged in second- and third-use French oak barrels for 12 months and then in the bottle for approximately 6 months. 100 ml: E=325 kJ/78 kcal
