Product notes

Named after Bruno's children (Francesco + Luisa = Fralù) and sourced from significantly younger vineyards, Bruno Rocca Langhe Nebbiolo Fralù represents the most contemporary venture of this northern Italian wine estate.

Production notes

Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 7 to 10 days. Malolactic fermentation temperature is stabilized at around 21/22°C. The amount of sulfite at bottling is reduced to a minimum to preserve the freshness and character of the terroir. 8 to 12 months in second-hand French oak barrels.

Tasting notes

Brilliant ruby ​​red color with garnet highlights. Dense, elegant, and deep nose with fruit such as strawberry, raspberry, and black cherry. A harmonious and well-balanced palate with a pronounced tannic structure typical of Nebbiolo. Pairs well with truffle pasta, roast lamb, and roast duck.
