{"product_id":"muraje-carema-patlu-2023","title":"Muraje, Carema 'Patlu', 2023","description":"Carema is Nebbiolo the hard way: vines on stone-walled terraces cut into a steep amphitheatre in Alto Piemonte, where farming takes at least five times the labor hours per hectare that it does in the Langhe. Muraje is a tiny, hands-on voice. Federico and Deborah Santini started the label in 2016. They've restored 1.3 hectares of old-vine parcels and make the wine in a small garage in Carema's old streets. Even the name points to the terraces: in local dialect, \"muraje\" means the rock walls that hold them up. Patlú grows on sandy-loam soils left behind by glaciers, at 300 to 600 meters, and it's made from Picotener, Carema's rare local Nebbiolo clone, which has adapted to the area's heavy rain and high-pH soils. The vines are farmed organically, and in the cellar the Santinis mostly leave the wine alone. Fermentation is spontaneous, in concrete tanks. As for the name, patlú is a local word for a wild, hairy animal, and the vineyard has a lot of cats. If you only know Nebbiolo from Barolo and Barbaresco, this is a great way to taste its mountain side.","brand":"Coeur Wines (T.
