The microcosm that links Ghemme to its territory is already in itself a peculiarity in the wine sector, as the north winds, which always blow threatening for the winemakers who have worked so richly minerals for centuries, make it possible to unite with an imaginary circle the unique district of this small town in the upper Piedmont.
When Nebbiolo, a vine of great character, manages to mature and give its fruit so rich in personality, true works of art are born, unique for harmony and balance.
The Ghemme 2013 by Torraccia del Piantavigna is a concrete example of this, and by opening this bottle, already in bringing the cork to the nose, is it possible to perceives the microcosm from which it comes.
Combined with Vespolina, Nebbiolo creates a real dialogue with the taster and gives the nose that broad spirit of almost wild aromas, with spices and red fruits, always well blended.
A color that recalls the earth from where it comes from, with garnet veins and vivid reflections, while in the mouth, the Ghemme by Torraccia del Piantavigna continues its story with harmony and balance as a true protagonist of the national winemaking nobility.
Rediscovering a combination of red meats in salmì or with a braised Piedmontese, is not to evoke old recipes, but to fit into a story that is rooted in the ever-present tales of this wonderful wine.
