Sommelier's Note
"Tre Ciabot consistently delivers savory complexity at a fair price — a great way to taste La Morra Nebbiolo without reaching for the Riserva."
Food Pairings
Pairs well with grilled red meats, mushroom dishes, and aged cheeses like Castelmagno. Also complements umami-rich Japanese dishes such as grilled duck breast with soy-based tare or shiitake-based simmered dishes.
When to drink it
