Nebbione Sparkling Wine: the launch of the new project

From the tips of Nebbiolo grapes, vinified in white, from the best vineyards to produce DOC and DOCG wines, Nebbione is created, a sparkling wine produced by the traditional method of second fermentation in the bottle, a sparkling wine resting on the lees for at least 40 months.

Monday, 5 October, at 9:00 p.m.

evening cost: € 20


NEBBIONE is an idea, a project, a wine. On the one hand, its soul is rooted in the Piedmontese tradition of the Nebbiolo sparkling wine; on the other hand it is the innovative and amazing result of rigorous research applied to the cluster of Nebbiolo grapes, carried out by the oenologist Sergio Molino, with the main objective of improving the quality of DOCG Nebbiolo–based wines – that is, removing the parts of the cluster that are less suited to the production of great red wines. Experimentation led to realize that the cluster, once removed the bottom tip (whose features are similar to those of a white grape), allows to produce a Barolo DOCG, or a Gattinara DOCG, of better quality.

Hence, the insight, the innovative idea: to produce, with what remains on the ground, a valuable classical method wine; an extra brut wine close to the major for conception, winemaking, quality French sparkling wines.

Sergio Molino creates a working group and an experimental laboratory in collaboration with six companies he regularly follows and, in 2010, begins the NEBBIONE project. NEBBIONE is first and foremost an idea, which is transformed into a production protocol and that gives rise to a 100% Nebbiolo classic method stationing 40 months on the lees. It is a trademark, a logo, an aggregator of companies.

Today, spring 2015, NEBBIONE is not yet on the market; the official launch of the sales will take place in October 2015. The entrance to the market, overseen individually by the companies participating in the project, will be the culmination of a plan coming from far, coordinated carefully and fulfilled with skill and passion.
