Cascina Chicco Langhe Nebbiolo 2017

Normal Price: $24.99

Sale Price:$16.99

Ernesto Faccenda purchased his first hectare of land in the 1950s in the heart of Roero, Italy. From that first small plot, Faccenda’s winery has grown to more than 40 hectares and is now run by his son and grandchildren. Since 2014, Roero has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site, though a sense of preservation and deep dedication to the land has been ever present in Cascina Chicco wines. Their 2017 Langhe Nebbiolo is a classic representation of the varietal, showcasing a floral, elegant palate and dichotomous structured tannins. Pair a glass with earthy fare, like rare marinated steak topped with feta cheese, lamb stew, or seared radicchio with roasted beets.
Cheers!
