Age-worthy Piedmontese Nebbiolo at its finest. From the importer: “The appellation of Carema is extremely small: only 16 hectares are planted to the vine. The Ferrando family controls 2.5 hectares. Nebbiolo grapes are harvested normally during the second half of October; then, they undergo a cuvaison of approximately two weeks in stainless steel before being racked into a mixture of large and small barrels for an aging period of 30-36 months. By law, the Carema cannot be released before four years of aging.”
