The entry level wine, from the wonderful if lower yielding 2016 vintage, is aged in neutral cask for two years before bottling. The value proposition here is plain nuts, to my sensibilities…..

“The Carema Classico is a wine of unreal beauty. Orange peel, spice, star anise, sweet pipe tobacco, rose petal, mint and Alpine herbs are some of the many aromas that lift from the glass. Translucent and gracious, with tons of character, the 2016 is all class. Readers who want to understand what Nebbiolo in Carema is all about will want to check out the 2016. It is a stunning, hauntingly beautiful wine.

100% Nebbiolo.
