2021 Cantine Povero Cabanè Langhe Red Wine

A masterful fusion of Italian tradition and modern winemaking, this Nebbiolo-Cabernet Sauvignon blend from Piedmont’s Langhe region offers bold character balanced with refined elegance. Perfect for collectors seeking a cellar-worthy red or enthusiasts craving complexity without compromise.

Tasting Profile
Ruby-hued with garnet undertones, this full-bodied red bursts with ripe cherry, blackberry, and wild herb aromas. Subtle vanilla and cinnamon notes emerge from 18 months in French oak barrels, while polished tannins create a velvety mouthfeel that lingers with a spicy finish.

Winemaker’s Craft
Hand-selected grapes undergo cool-temperature fermentation (28–30°C) to preserve fruit integrity before malolactic conversion adds creaminess. Extended cellar aging develops layered spice complexity absent in quicker-produced blends.

Pairing Powerhouse
Elevates hearty dishes:
– Earthy mushroom risotto
– Herb-crusted lamb chops
– Slow-cooked beef bourguignon

Why It Stands Out
Unlike standard Langhe blends, Cabanè combines 60% Nebbiolo’s structured tannins with 40% Cabernet Sauvignon’s dark fruit intensity. This proprietary ratio creates a uniquely approachable yet sophisticated profile – ideal for both immediate enjoyment and 5+ year cellaring development.
