Franco Conterno Cascina Sciulun

2011 Langhe Nebbiolo Nebbiolo

The Global Wine Co Selection Franco Conterno Cascina Sciulun, crafted from the Nebbiolo varietal, is a captivating red wine hailing from the renowned Langhe Nebbiolo region. This 2011 vintage showcases a remarkable complexity that is characteristic of its origin, with an alluring bouquet of ripe cherries, violets, and earthy undertones that invite exploration. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied experience, balanced by a vibrant acidity that refreshes and enlivens each sip. Tannins are notably firm yet refined, contributing structure while allowing the wine's rich fruit intensity to shine brilliantly. As a dry wine, it remains elegantly sophisticated, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes or simply savoring on its own. This wine reflects the true essence of the Langhe terroir, embodying both tradition and craftsmanship.
