Nebbiolo d’Alba DOC Superiore “Val Martin” 2020 –  Hilberg Pasquero

Tradition and character from Roero | A deep, fine, and long-lived Nebbiolo

The Nebbiolo d’Alba Superiore “Val Martin” is made from vineyards located in Roero, an area historically suited for the production of fine Nebbiolo, thanks to the prevalence of sandy soils and significant temperature fluctuations. The 2020 vintage yielded perfectly ripe and balanced grapes, resulting in a structured, elegant, and highly precise aromatic wine.

Vinified with a long maceration on the skins and aged in oak barrels for an extended period, the “Val Martin” expresses aromas of red fruit, medicinal herbs, and sweet spices, with a harmonious palate, well-integrated tannins, and the typical freshness of Roero Nebbiolo.
