Pressenda is a spectacular vineyard overlooking the Castle of Serralunga d’Alba, located in Monforte d’Alba. The wine is ready to develop in the bottle, yet is already enjoyable thanks to the natural acidic component that refreshes the palate.
Grape Varietal:
Nebbiolo
Tasting Notes:
With great structure and drinkability, its flavors evolve from mint and violet to raspberry and spices. In the mouth, it is solid and persistent. Able to withstand time, this wine pairs well with important dishes. Serve at 18° C (64° F) after bringing the bottle to room temperature 24 hours before drinking
92 Points - Falstaff, November 2014. "Sparkling, rich garnet red. Opens on the nose with notes of licorice, sweet raspberries and pickled cherries. Firm and gripping on the palate, shows powerful tannins, but also fine sweet melting, persistent in the finish, with firm pressure."
92 Points - Wine Spectator, September 2015.
92 Points - Cellar Tracker
87 Points - Wine Enthusiast, January 2014. "The nose on this dense wine opens with aromas of roasted coffee bean and toasted sensations. The concentrated palate offers espresso, chocolate, mature plum and vanilla alongside an infusion of brooding tannins."
