Produced and bottled by Az. Agr. Abbona Marziano - Dogliani (CN), Italy
Made in Italy
Dogliani is an area of choice for the production of Dolcetto grapes. It was Celso Abbona, founder of the company, who realised this before many. He staked everything on that vine, right from the dawn of his company. And it was a winning bet, we might say today. San Luigi is the name of the historic vineyard from which the grapes used to produce this fine red wine come. Historic vineyards, some 40 years old. The wine obtained from it is distinguished by its freshness and ease of drinking, while maintaining an important red wine character and being endowed with body and elegance. It is a wonderful everyday wine, able to accompany lunches and dinners with its aromas of fresh fruit ranging from blackberry to cherry. In the mouth it is easygoing and tasty, endowed with good natural acidity. A decidedly youthful wine, perfect from hors d'oeuvres to cheeses. Good even today, it is at its best in its early years.
Celso Abbona, great-grandfather of the current owners of the company, was one of the first of his generation to believe in the potential of the Dogliani area and to valorise Dolcetto, the grape that was able to achieve excellence on these hills. This is how the company was born, with a lot of hard work and passion. It was Celso himself who planted the legendary Bricco Doriolo vineyard, in the hamlet of Santa Lucia di Dogliani, which today represents one of the most prestigious cru of the denomination. Over the years, and as new generations joined the company, it grew and expanded, particularly towards the Langhe. These were the years when the Barolo bet was still to be won. Thus the first plots of land were purchased, allowing the company to harvest and bottle the first Nebbiolo. And it was a success. Today, the new generations carry on the work, continuing with the same commitment to produce great wines from the territory. The company can count on around 52 hectares of vineyards in the municipalities of Dogliani, Monforte d'Alba and Novello, all conducted in a sustainable way, to produce good wines, with full respect for nature. Many of the family's vineyards, still worked by hand according to methods handed down through generations, are composed of old vines, even 60 years old. They are plants of rare beauty and capable of expressing the highest quality of their terroir.
