Region

Cisterna d'Asti is a small DOC of the Piedmont wine region in the far northwest of Italy, created in 2002. Unlike the case with Barbera d'Asti DOCG or many other local DOCs, Cisterna is not a grape variety. This title covers red wines produced around the village of Cisterna d'Asti, and neigboring communes right in the centre of Piedmont. Cisterna d'Asti wine is made predominantly from Croatina, which must account for 80 percent of the blend. The balance may consist of other non-aromatic red varieties sanctioned under Piedmont's wine laws. Grapes used to make wines sold under other local DOCs (Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto) are the obvious candidates.

Varietal


Nebnebiolo is the grape variety behind the top-quality red wines of Piedmont, northwestern Italy, the most notable of which are Barolo and Barbaresco. The most searched-for Nebbiolo wine on our database is currently Giacomo Conterno Monfortino Barolo Riserva. Nebbiolo wines are distinguished by their strong tannins, high acidity and distinctive scent – often described as "tar and roses". A less obvious characteristic, visible only over time, is their tendency to lose color. Within just a few years of vintage, most Nebbiolo wines begin fading from deep, violet-tinged ruby to a beautiful brick orange.

Food Pairing

Meats, Braised Meats and Cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Nebbiolo shows a very nice ruby ​​red color. Nice and fresh and fruity on the nose with delicious aromas of red fruit. We taste ripe cherries, fine acidity and light tannins. Very pleasant and soft to drink.
