The 2022 Giovanni Rosso Ester Canale is a distinctive Langhe DOC Nebbiolo from Serralunga d’Alba in Piedmont, sourced from vines in the celebrated Vigna Rionda site. The nose shows Morello cherry, raspberry and blackberry with wild rose, mint, sweet spice and subtle cedar notes.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fresh acidity and polished, fine-grained tannins. Ripe red fruit is layered with cinnamon, star anise and savoury mineral notes, while around 12 months in large French oak barrels adds gentle complexity without masking the Nebbiolo character.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Nebbiolo drinkers seeking the structure and complexity associated with Serralunga d’Alba in a more approachable Langhe expression. Enjoy it now with some air or cellar over the next 10–15 years. Ideal with braised beef, roast lamb, mushroom risotto, game dishes or aged hard cheeses.

About the region

Piedmont · Langhe

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
