Tasting Notes: The nose is full of spicy, fruity notes with fine hints of dried flowers and rose petals. The palate has a warm, slightly tannic mouth feel with well-integrated herbal notes. One of the defining wines of Alpine Nebbiolo (that’s actually accessible). While not as famous as the Etichetta Nera big brother, this is certainly a fantastic wine in its own right.
Estate History: Carema’s origin story is the stuff that raises our arm hairs: a singular terroir, nestled in the foothills of the Alps in the long shadows of Mont Blanc; a visually breathtaking amphitheater of steeply terraced vines trained to hang from ancient pergolas; and a family—the only family to produce a Carema under their own name—of immense warmth, profound intuition, and unquenchable passion for their home soil. Like all of the world’s greatest wines, the mere existence of Ferrando Carema almost defies logic. It speaks to something deep in our human blood, something that seems to need to toil in difficult, grueling environments in order to wring out the very taste of the earth itself.
