Tenute Sella Nebbiolo "Orbello" Coste della Sesia DOC 2023
Orbello from Tenute Sella is a beautiful blend of mainly Nebbiolo, with a little Vespolina and Cabernet Sauvignon. Crafted as a ‘family wine’ that is approachable yet refined. Rooted in Upper Piedmont’s storied winemaking heritage, Tenute Sella has been cultivating vineyards since 1671, making it one of Italy’s most historic estates.
The vineyards, rooted in acidic volcanic and marine sandy soils, benefit from southwest and southeast exposures at elevations between 270-350 meters. This unique terroir imparts freshness and minerality to the wine. After fermentation in stainless steel and a 10-day maceration, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is aged for 12 months in large Slavonian oak casks.
Orbello delights with a vibrant characters offering bright red fruit aromas, floral nuances, and a subtle spiciness from the Vespolina. On the palate, it is crisp and refined, with fine tannins and a refreshing finish. While enjoyable young, it has the structure to age gracefully for over a decade
