Tenute Sella is located at the foot of the Alps of Biella, in Northern Piedmont. Purchased in 1671 by Comino Sella, for 350 years the family-owned property has been cultivated by generations of the Sella family. Here in Alto-Piemonte, they craft beautiful, ethereal expressions of Nebbiolo-based wines, which are exceptionally age-worthy.
Orbello is a small village very close to the vineyard where this wine is produced from. A traditional blend that Tenute Sella has been producing for more than 50 years. Nebbiolo, Vespolina and a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon, all the grapes are hand-harvested. Aging for 1 year in used barriques, and 6 months refinement in bottle. Attractive nose of mixed red fruits, very bright. The palate is soft and mouth-filling. Red fruits follow through with a touch of minerality. Great finesse, gentle and seemless.
