Ferrando is the legendary grower of Carema, the dramatic alpine appellation where Nebbiolo grows on steep terraced slopes near the Aosta Valley. The altitude gives these wines their hallmark high-toned, almost ethereal elegance, more delicate than Barolo but built for the long haul. The Etichetta Bianca (white label) is the annual bottling, aged in a mix of large and small barrels. The 2013 was a cool, classic vintage that produced especially fragrant, high-acid, finely structured wines; it's just entering its mature stride and will keep evolving.

More about Ferrando

If you’ve always assumed that Ferrando Carema was the name of this estate, you’d be forgiven. To those of us who already love the wines, Luigi Ferrando and the tiny little mountain town of Carema are indeed one and the same.

The DOC Carema is home to the most northern, high-altitude Nebbiolo in Piedmont. Since 1957, the Ferrando family has made wine here on steeply terraced vineyards, trained on pergola vines to obtain maximum exposure to the sun.

It’d be a bit peculiar to include the contrasting terroirs of Carema and Barolo within the same regional boundaries, were it not for the poetic justice that all great expressions of this diva grape play on Team Piedmont.

Yes, the euphoric aromas of tar and roses that make even the most stoic Barolo lover swirl and shiver are embedded in the DNA. But as if without permission, like a swift pull of a tablecloth from under an undisturbed setting of a dining room table, Ferrando’s Carema breathes in an alpine vitality that lifts the Nebbiolo off its heavy feet.

Braised beef, game birds, mushroom risotto, aged alpine cheeses.

Tasting Profile

High-toned, fresh and classically structured Nebbiolo: red cherry, rose, tar and herbs with bright acidity and fine tannins. Maturing, will keep.
