2024 Diego Conterno Langhe Nascetta Bianco

Piedmont's true native white grape may be Nascetta, a rare gem slowly making a comeback in the Langhe region after being forgotten for too many years. Historically made into sweet wine mostly for religious services, it now shines as a dry wine with captivating complexity and aromatic intensity. This exquisite wine from the respected Conterno estate in Monforte d'Alba represents a true labor of love, showcasing Piedmont's 'other' white wine with bright character reminiscent of Chenin Blanc combined with the minerality and tension of alpine Pinot Grigio or Sancerre.
