Nebbiolo is the grape of Barolo the “king of the wines”. Originally coming from Piemonte, in the North West Italy, the Nebbiolo takes its name from the fog (nebbia) that usually appears during the harvest season. In fact this is the last grape harvested in late October and early November. Polesco is produced in Serralunga d’Alba area, on the right side of Tanaro river, at 300 m. above sea level. The vineyard is 9 years old, with about 4000 plants per hectare and the growing system is a Guyot traditional. The soil is mostly calcareous and clayey with natural low production per hectare.
