Nebbiolo grapes are the basis of the great red Piedmont wines, Barolo, Barbaresco, Gattinara, and Bramaterra. In 2010, 'Le Pianelle' launched a modern interpretation of this grape variety, a Rosato made from over 90% Nebbiolo and nearly 10% Vespolina and Croatina. The grapes are hand-harvested from selected vineyard plots, destemmed, and 90% fermented in steel tanks at low temperatures. 10% of the grapes ferment in Stockinger oak barrels.

The result is a characterful Rosé wine, excellent as a food companion and enjoyable to drink for three to five years.

Al Posto dei Fiori – ‘Instead of Flowers’ – that’s its name, and its aroma is captivating. Excellent both in summer and winter, with a mineral taste and distinct aromas of wild strawberries and raspberries. It also has light plum and spicy notes, with an impressive body and length for a Rosé. A great wine!

Le Pianelle

In Alto Piemonte, this is unfortunately still only a hidden gem in Germany.

The winery, founded by Dr. Dieter Heuskel, focuses in Brusnengo on reviving the DOC Bramaterra. Once a world-renowned region for top wines, this cultural heritage was somewhat lost during industrialization.

Now, after Alto Piemonte has already been considered a "hidden gem" in the USA for years, larger wineries have also started to firmly rely on climate change and grow wine in Alto Piemonte, not just in Barolo or Barbaresco.

The current 2023 vintage of Al Posto dei Fioris was rated with a proud 93 points by the second largest wine publication based in the USA.

There, the hard work of the highly knowledgeable team at the winery—assembled and staying together from the start, mainly consisting of Cristiano Garella, Andrea Zanetta, and Fabio Zambolin—has been appreciated with good reviews for years.

While in Germany probably only a tiny fraction of wine drinkers know what to make of Alto Piemonte...

Definitely try it. The 2016 vintage of the top red wine Bramaterra is already sold out. (Except in a vertical case exclusively here in the Piemont Express)
