Porta Rossa Langhe Nebbiolo DOC 2021

Brilliant ruby red colour, with garnet shades. This fruity wine has hints of wild strawberries, raspberries, and pomegranates, with balsamic notes of liquorice and mint. The sip is fresh and dynamic, with elegant and refined tannins; pleasant and long finish.

Amidst the smooth Piedmontese hills, the historic “Porta Rossa” (“Red Door”) winery stands prominently, nestled in the captivating panorama of the Langhe. Located in Diano d’Alba, the ancient structure bearing the brand is easily identifiable by its iconic red door. Throughout its history, numerous notable figures have crossed the threshold of the red door, including Italy’s first king, Vittorio Emanuele II. The monarch, known for his appreciation of culinary delights, frequented the Langhe region, making multiple visits through the distinctive ‘red door’ to indulge in fine libations.
In recent decades, the keys to the winery have passed into the capable hands of one of Piedmont’s most esteemed winemakers, Pierfranco Bonaventura. “Experience and tradition,” emphasizes Pierfranco, “are sum up our philosophy. Our mission is expressed in the constant enhancement of the territory, achieved through the refinement of wine in large barrels.”
