Lorenzo Corino | Case Corini Centin Nebbiolo Natural Wine | Organic Biodynamic
Earthy, age-worthy nebbiolo made from 70 year old naturally cultivated vines. Named for Lorenzo Corino's dearly beloved grandfather. Having a garnet color with orange hues it has a complex, spicy nose with notes of cardamom and cinnamon. When tasting, it is fruit forward, cherry & forest fruits, followed by spices, and chalky tannins envelope the mouth and finishes elegantly. After a gentle crushing, fermentation starts with native yeast fermentation and wines are left with skin contact for 6-7 weeks, followed by about 36 mos of aging in wooden barrels.
As with all of Case Corini wines, this is a 00 wine, nothing added, nothing removed, no yeast, no sulphites added, organic, biodynamic, vegan. In other words, all natural wine.

Lorenzo Corino and his son Guido, along with his daughter Luisa, are 6th generation family of natural wine grower-makers, who started cultivating and making wine in 1846. Their property sits in between Alba and Asti at 260m. They make really tasty barbera and nebbiolo wines, and have recently introduced Orange Moscato wines to their portfolio. Making natural wines since 1967, Lorenzo Corino has patented the Corino Method for natural wine cultivation and production. As quoted by a customer ' Their wine is not an exaggeration to say that the most popular now among Italian natural wine lovers.' As with all natural wines, especially those of Lorenzo Corino, we suggest letting them breathe before tasting.
