2020 Eugenio Bocchino - Langhe Nebbiolo La Perucca

$91.00

Producer | Eugenio Bocchino

Region | Piedmont

Variety | Nebbiolo

Alcohol | 14%

The first vineyard planted by Eugenio and Cinzia, La Perucca sits just outside the Barolo DOCG overlooking Alba. Treated with the same philosophy as the estate's Barolos, the wine undergoes a three-month submerged-cap fermentation before ageing for two years in large old botti and nine months in concrete. Elegant, perfumed and beautifully structured, it is a Langhe Nebbiolo that comfortably overdelivers on its appellation.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Eugenio Bocchino and Cinzia Pelazza cultivate around five hectares of vineyards in La Morra, right in the heart of the Barolo country. Their wines are produced through natural and biodynamic practices.

Eugenio is old school in his winemaking and believes that wines should reflect good soils and pristine grapes rather than what happens in the cellar. The result is wines that are open and approachable, emphasising purity and elegance, with beautifully managed tannins.
