Noce Grande is a prestigious wine that epitomizes the excellence of Cascina Chicco. Made exclusively from 100% carefully selected Nebbiolo grapes, it originates from the heart of the Barbaresco appellation, one of the most renowned wine regions in Piedmont.
The grapes are meticulously hand-harvested to ensure impeccable quality. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks, with a maceration on the skins lasting approximately 15 days to enhance the tannins and provide the wine with a robust, complex structure. The wine then matures for 24 months in oak barrels, followed by an additional 6 months in the bottle, during which it achieves full maturity, showcasing exceptional aromatic depth and refined elegance.
