This is alpine Nebbiolo from the Carema DOCG in the far North of Piedmont. We've written before about the hauntingly floral, elegant wines of Luigi Ferrando. In some ways a big fish in a small pond, (he farms 3ha which seems small until you learn the entire appellation is only 16ha) he has nevertheless made the best case for the delicate high-altitude Nebbiolo of any living winemaker. The vines are situated in a perfect south-facing exposition just south of Mont Blanc. \u003cstrong\u003eThe beauty of these wines is that they offer the intense rose petal and tar aromatics of Barolo, but with the finesse and elegance of Burgundy. \u003c\/strong\u003eProduced exclusively from the Nebbiolo grape planted in a series of vineyards that sit beneath the Swiss Alp's Mont Blanc (Monte Bianco). These grapes sit in a broad amphitheatre with full southern exposure overlooking the river, Dora Baltea, that runs from the snow-capped mountains south through the Valle d'Aosta into the northwest of Piedmont.  In the cellar he's a devout traditionalist, using long ageing three-year ageing periods in neutral botti making the perfumed elegance of his wines all the more surprising. If you love Nebbiolo for its floral complexity rather than its power, these are wines you can't miss. \u003cstrong\u003eThink Premier Cru Burgundy meets Nebbiolo in the Swiss Alps.

Ferrando is the undisputed king of Carema, and owns nearly 3ha of the only 16ha of planted grapes in the reigon. A devout traditionalist, the wines are aged in a mix of old, large Slovenian barrels and neutral, smaller barrel for 30-36 months before bottling. \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4800 bottles for the United States.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AOC Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41232973693081,"sku":"23791","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0533\/9729\/1161\/products\/2017FerrandoCaremaWhiteLabelMagnum.jpg?v=1635830705"},{"product_id":"2017-luigi-ferrando-carema-etichetta-nera-piedmont-magnum","title":"2017 Luigi Ferrando \"Etichetta Nera\" Carema MAGNUM","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Etichetta Nera is Ferrando's 'Reserve' bottling, only produced in special vintages, and always the greatest wine he makes.

To be labeled as 'Etichetta Nera,' the wine must first be selected in the vineyard as worthy; then, it must pass muster post-malolactic-fermentation; and finally, a third verification is performed at the end of the three-year elevage. Raised entirely in a mix of used 250- and 500-liter French barrels, the 2017 is more profound and lower-pitched on the nose than its white-label counterpart, with blacker fruit and a stronger savory imprint.

Much like the Colins or the Pillots of Burgundy, the Conterno family can trace their history in Piedmont back many decades, resulting in multiple producers boasting the same last name. Giacomo and Aldo are the most famous Conternos, but one that you may be less familiar with but certainly need to have on your radar is \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003e Conterno. An up-and-coming producer located in Monforte d€™Alba, \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003e Conterno and his son Stefano are known for crafting elegant and powerful iterations of Nebbiolo. \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003e was originally trained by Piedmont legend Beppe Colla at Prunotto, which laid the groundwork for the establishment of Conterno-Fantino in 1982, which \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003e founded with his cousins. After a couple decades of making wine with his family, \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003e decided it was time for him to go his own way and make a more traditional style of Nebbiolo, and proceeded to found his own project in 2000. He most notably brought with him family holdings from the Ginesta Cru of Monforte d€™Alba, which is unquestionably the most prestigious of the 11 Crus in the village. Ginestra is unique within Monforte for two reasons: it faces southeast (as many of the great vineyards in Europe do) and it has an unusually large concentration of limestone in the soils, which gives the resulting wines more power and structure that those coming from other areas of Monforte. Overall, \u003cspan class=\"il\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiego\u003c\/span\u003eConterno is doing an incredible job of crafting traditional and powerful expressions of Nebbiolo from this area, and this is definitely one Barolo producer who you will want to keep on your radar, especially as long as the wines continue to come in under $100.  - \u003cspan
