Balbi Soprani Nebbiolo d’Alba 2023 is a delicate and vibrant Piedmontese red — a light, fragrant expression of Nebbiolo with aromas of violets and strawberries, and a velvety, harmonious palate that pairs perfectly with red meats and wild game. Produced by the Capetta family’s Balbi Soprani Winery — winemakers since 1953 in Piedmont, Northwestern Italy, where the vineyard landscapes have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014. A wine of genuine Italian elegance and regional character, from one of Piedmont’s most respected family-owned estates.
