PIEDMONT
The Italian word "Piedmont" means at the foot of the mountains, and indeed the whole region is dominated by the Alps to the north and the west. Piedmont is home to the largest area of vines which produce DOC and DOCG wines, and the region boasts over 40 denominations. The most well known wines from Piedmont include Barolo and Barbaresco, made from the Nebbiolo grape, and Asti Spumante, made from the Moscato grape. Nebbiolo is the undisputed king of the grape varieties in Piedmont but you should not ignore the lovely reds from the indigenous Dolcetto or Barbera, nor indeed the...

TASTING NOTES
Beautifully deep ruby colour, with a bouquet of plum, cherry and spice. Fruity, fresh and balanced, with a fair amount of grip on the backend, this is a delightful Dolcetto that more than holds its own. A charming and approachable introduction to the Giacosa line-up.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
Morello cherry, bruised red plum and rose petal, spill from the glass. Bright fruit intensity is backed up by ripe, silky tannins and wonderful freshness. Drinking beautifully now it can age well for another five years. Truly a baby Barolo from the Maestro’s cellar.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
Immediately enjoyable, with a wonderful bouquet of red fruit, floral notes and just a hint of meaty savouriness. The palate is lively and fresh, with silky tannins and just enough acidity to give it a nice little kick at the end. This is the perfect introduction to the house style – elegant, understated and yet full of character. Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
The colour is a classic, intense garnet red. Clean and of good substance on the nose with floral and fruity notes and hints of liquorice and roots. This is a wine of character and marked tannins . Velvety and harmonious with notes of sweet spice and jam. A wine that can grow and evolve for many years. Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
A deep ruby red, yet with a bright and lively aspect. The scent is complex and rich with fruit, floral scents, spices, underbrush and plums. It has an intense flavour with sweet tannins and a long aftertaste. The Barolo Villero expresses itself with its characteristic stimulating scent, accompanied by a dry but warm and elegant flavour, which it retains for...

The most well known wines from Piedmont include Barolo and Barbaresco, made from the Nebbiolo grape, and Asti Spumante, made from the Moscato grape. Nebbiolo is the undisputed king of the grape varieties in Piedmont but you should not ignore the lovely reds from the indigenous Dolcetto or Barbera, nor indeed the best examples of international varieties and of course the wonderful local whites, most particular the resurgent Arneis. We are honoured to represent two maestros of Piedmont - Angelo Gaja and Bruno Giacosa.
