Lessona DOC 2019 Sperino Properties

Lessona DOC 2019 Proprietà Sperino

The Lessona DOC 2019 by Proprietà Sperino is a Piedmontese red wine of great personality, made from 100% Nebbiolo and interpreted with an elegant, precise style that is deeply connected to the territory. It is a bottle that combines finesse, tension, and complexity, designed for those seeking an authentic Italian wine that can clearly tell the identity of Lessona and the production sensitivity of the winery.

Territory and wine style

The grapes come from the vineyards of Lessona, among the areas of Orolungo, Castello, and the vineyards Ormeggio, Castagnola, Covà, and Monfalcone. We are in a historically vocated area for viticulture, where the soils of Pliocene marine sands on porphyries, combined with more recent fluvio-glacial sediments, contribute to producing wines of great drive and refinement. The acidity of the soil and the richness of microelements favor a clear aromatic development and a taut taste structure, with a profile that favors finesse over power. Manual harvesting, spontaneous fermentation, and prolonged aging in wood complete a rigorous and artisanal approach.

Tasting notes

In the glass, the Lessona DOC 2019 shows a typical Nebbiolo character: transparent and bright color, fine aromas of red fruits, wilted flowers, delicate spices, and mineral nuances. On the palate, it is vertical, harmonious, and measured, with a well-present freshness that supports the sip and makes it dynamic. The tannins, while present, remain elegant and integrated, while the structure develops with progression rather than imposing strength. The finish is long, savory, and coherent, with that sense of drive that makes Lessona one of the most refined territories in Piedmont.

Recommended pairings

This wine pairs very effectively with flavorful but not excessively rich meat dishes, such as roasts, braises, beef cheek, guinea fowl, and rabbit in structured preparations. It is also ideal with traditional Piedmontese dishes, mushrooms, light game, and medium-intensity aged cheeses. Its elegance makes it suitable for recipes that require a balance between succulence, aromaticity, and depth of flavor.

Serving temperature

Serve the Lessona DOC 2019 Proprietà Sperino at 16-18°C, preferably in wide glasses. In the case of a young opening or after transport, a brief aeration may be helpful to enhance the aromatic expression and harmony of the sip.
