Vintage Report
The 2019 vintage in Piedmont is considered excellent, scoring 96 points according to the Robert Parker charts. The wines show a classic structure with great aging potential and fine tannins.
In the sunny hills of the Roero region, the Nebbiolo grapes thrive in a pleasant climate. The temperatures fluctuate well, allowing the grapes to ripen well. The vines are deeply rooted in sandy soil, which softens the wine's character, making it an accessible wine.
The old vineyards of Angelo Negro
In one of the world's most beautiful wine regions, the Angelo Negro winery owns dozens of hectares of vineyards. Located in the Roero region in the heart of Piedmont, the winery produces elegant wines. The family-owned business has been in the family for hundreds of years. Besides the Nebbiolo grape, they also cultivate Arneis, Barbera, Dolcetto, and Facorita/Vermentino. This allows them to offer a wide range of wines. Their vineyards are among the oldest and most sought-after in the region. Today, Giovanni Negro is at the helm. He produced the first Roero Arneis dry wine, registered in 1971. They have a wide range of impressive wines. They own a total of 64 hectares of vineyards, almost entirely organically farmed.Manual harvest for Angelo Negro Roero Riserva Ciabot San Giorgio
In October, the Nebbiolo grapes are carefully harvested by hand. In fact, a rigorous selection process already takes place in the vineyards themselves, all with a focus on the highest quality. The grapes are transported to the winery in small 20-kilo boxes. Here, a traditional fermentation process lasts for about 20 days. Finally, the wine rests for several months in oak barrels. This gives the wine stronger aromas and more character. The Roero Riserva Ciabot San Giorgio emerges with a garnet red color in the glass. The wine has a beautiful structure and fine tannins. We note aromas of red fruit, balsamic vinegar, and occasional earthy notes thanks to the oak aging. On the palate, this Roero wine is full-bodied and elegant with a very long finish.Product details
