The Enzo Bartoli Langhe Nebbiolo is a red wine from the Langhe DOC in Piedmont, Italy, made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Produced by MGM Mondo del Vino, the Enzo Bartoli line aims to capture the authentic spirit of Piedmontese wines. The Langhe region, characterized by its distinctive rolling hills, provides the unique terroir for this wine.

## Food pairing

The wine's medium-plus to high acidity and tannins provide a robust structure that can cut through the richness of savory meat dishes and complement their protein content. Its earthy and savory notes harmonize with mushroom-based dishes and aged cheeses, while its fruit profile can stand up to tomato-based sauces.

## Wine making process

The Enzo Bartoli Langhe Nebbiolo is produced using traditional winemaking techniques. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo red wine vinification with fermentation in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures. Maceration is of medium duration. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in large vats, with some indications of stainless steel aging followed by bottle aging, to develop its character.
