From the heart of the Langhe, from the homeland of the noble Nebbiolo, the Sartirano family offers this interesting Monferrato DOC Nebbiolo 2021. They produce it from a selection of grapes from the San Silvestro winery. Ancient knowledge, modern technology. This is the secret of a red wine that is the result of careful processing of the best grapes. Immediately after the harvest, the bunches of grapes are quickly brought to the cellar, where the delicate transformation phase begins. It starts with the crushing and destemming of the grapes, followed by a fermentation phase in steel, in temperature-controlled tanks. The delicate maceration phase lasts for 4 days, with daily pumping of the must over the cap of skins. In the glass it has a beautiful, intense and delicate ruby red colour. On the nose, it surprises with the pleasantness of its aromas reminiscent of thyme and wild flowers. In the mouth, however, what is most striking is the wine's distinctive tannic component, well integrated with all the other components but still perceptible. Medium-bodied, it is a pleasantly dry red, destined for a wide range of pairings. Perfect, for example, with baked pasta, roasts, grilled meats but also with mature and piquant cheeses.
A fine family of Piedmontese winemakers. We are talking about the Sartirano family, four generations united by a unique territory. Let's start with the origins. Sartirano has been in the wine business since 1871, although the most important oenological activity only began in 1910 thanks to Giovanni, who began producing and marketing his wines mainly in Piedmont. From father to son, we arrive at 1946, after the Great War, when his sons Pietro and Giovanni take over from their father, continuing his work and maintaining the focus on quality. Then, in 1973, the first automated bottling line was set up in the cellar and the company took the name Cantine San Silvestro. While 1988 saw the acquisition of Costa di Bussia - Tenuta Arnulfo, a historic winery with 11 hectares of vineyards in one of the most important Barolo production areas. But that was not enough. In 2002, in fact, the Sartirano family also purchased Tenuta Ghercina, in Novello, with 7 hectares of vineyards, again in an important Barolo production area. And it was here that Paolo and Guido, the new generation of the family in the winery, decided to build the new cellar, which boasts as much as 15,000 hectolitres of storage capacity, an area dedicated to ageing in wooden barrels and a room for ageing in bottles.
