Production Zone
With the word ‘Bricco’ (‘Bric’, in the dialect of the Langhe region) we refer to the summit of our hills whose calcareous soil, rich in quartz sand and fine silt, assure considerable structure and an immediate expression of bouquet. It is on this soil that white grapes find the ideal conditions to fully express their potential.
Cultivation of the Wineyard
The vines are upwards-trained with vertical-trellised Guyot system on steep hills.
Vinification
Each vine variety is harvested separately on the day of its full ripeness. The grapes are then quickly taken intact to the cellar where they are destemmed and delicately crushed. Afterwards, the grapes are softly pressed and the resulting wine is fermented in thermo-conditioned steel tanks at a low temperature. The wine is then stored in temperature-controlled steel vats, in contact with the lees to allow each grape variety to best express its characteristics. It is only then that it is decided the best assemblage to make blending each variety harmoniously into a powerful and yet delicate wine, just like different flowers give honey (‘Amel’, in the dialect of the Langhe region) its freshness and complexity.
Sensory characteristics
The wine is of a pale straw-yellow, sometimes with light green glimmers. The aroma combines fruity notes of peach and apricot and a hint of almond acacia and hawthorn. The flavor is full, fresh, sapid, fragrant and lightly mineral. It flows easily on our palate but its elegance persists.
Food Matches
Bric Amel is an ideal companion for delicate appetizers also of intense flavour like veal in tuna sauce, vegetable flans, light first courses, boiled or stewed white meat, raw or marinated fish.
