Cascina Carrà's flagship Nebbiolo, from the single Tita vineyard in Monforte d'Alba. Intense, elegant, and highly concentrated, it shows an intense garnet color. The nose is enveloping, with balsamic and ethereal sensations where rhubarb dominates when young, evolving with age into cinnamon and green pepper spice alongside white truffle and vanilla. The palate is sumptuous yet rightly austere, with great persistence and silky tannins.
Tita is Cascina Carrà's most serious wine — Barolo-like complexity, truffle and spice nuances, at a fraction of Barolo prices.
