The Baluma is a wine grown at an altitude of 500 meters, in west facing vineyards. The soils are a mix of clay, tuff and calcareous marl. After macerating for 8 to 10 days on the skins, the wine is matured for six months in 500L oak barrels. You will find ripe strawberries and cherries, combined with a light floral note on the nose, and a juicy palate with just the right amount of tannins to give this wine the structure to balance the fruitiness.


"Bright ruby red in color but fully transparent, the 2022 Langhe Neb­biolo Baluma is snappy with aromas of ripe cranberries, fresh flowers, wet stones, and spice. Medium-bodied, it has a soft mineral texture, fine tannins, and a snappy lift without being austere. It is clean and fresh, with great lift and energy without sacrificing ripeness, and of­fers fantastic mineral accents through a rather long finish for an "ent­ry" Nebbiolo. It's approachable and perfect for drinking over the next few years, but I love this for drinking now. Serve it with a light chill. "
