Marchesi di Barolo Bric Amel Langhe White

A white wine from the Langhe wine region is rare, and that makes this one very special. Bric Amel is made from Arneis, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes, which complement each other perfectly in this white wine. The winemaker at Marchesi di Barolo aims to showcase all the region has to offer with this white wine—a great deal, and you can smell and taste the entire region in this white wine. The soil, which consists primarily of limestone and quartz, and the perfect climate, contribute to the production of a white wine that is unique in the region.

A unique base for Bric Amel

The Marchesi di Barolo winery has a long and rich history. As a result, the current winemaker possesses a wealth of knowledge and information from the past. For example, he understands the unique and complex composition of the soil, which consists of clay, slate, tuff, marl, and sandstone. The Langhe region in the Piedmont region is protected from adverse weather conditions by the Alps to the north. The significant difference between day and night temperatures favors the grapes, resulting in wines with fantastic aromas and flavors.

A white wine from the Italian hills

The wine is named Bric, which refers to the hilltop location and its rich soil. This soil offers ideal conditions for white grapes to ripen. The grapes are immediately taken to the cellar after harvest, where they are gently crushed and destemmed. The must is fermented at low temperatures in thermo-conditioned steel tanks. The result is a pale yellow wine, sometimes with a slight greenish tinge. The aroma reveals fruity notes of peach and apricot with hints of almond, acacia, and hawthorn berries. The palate is full-bodied, fresh, juicy, fragrant, and slightly minerally. It drinks easily and retains tremendous elegance. Bric Amel pairs well with veal, light appetizers or cooked white meat, and raw or marinated fish.
