Discover a Rare White Gem from Piedmont
The San Silvestro Nas-cetta del Comune di Novello Langhe 2023 is a distinctive and elegant white wine from the Langhe region in Piedmont, Northern Italy. Made from 100% Nascetta grapes, an indigenous and increasingly rare variety, this wine showcases the uniqueness of the Langhe terroir with impressive aromatic complexity and refined texture.
Tasting Notes
This vintage opens with intense aromas of acacia blossom, citrus peel, and ripe yellow fruits, layered over subtle herbal undertones. On the palate, it is velvety and well-balanced, with a creamy mid-palate and a crisp, mineral-driven finish. A hint of salinity enhances the overall freshness and gastronomic appeal.
Winemaking & Maturation
Winemaker Marco Martino uses a delicate approach to highlight the aromatic profile of the Nascetta grape. Grapes are gently pressed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to retain varietal purity. The wine is then aged for six months on fine lees in used French oak barrels, with regular bâtonnage (lees stirring) to enrich mouthfeel and add complexity.

| Winery | The Nascetta grapes are grown in a single-hectare vineyard in Novello, in the Ghercina area, where this variety originated. This perfumed variety is relatively low-yielding but produces high-quality grapes with concentrated flavours. The grapes for this wine were grown on the banks of a small lake, which provides a unique microclimate in which this variety flourishes. The vines are manually harvested when the grapes have reached optimum maturity levels. Established in 1871, San Silvestro has produced DOC and DOCG wines from its estate winery in the Commune of Novello in Piedmont. The traditional varieties are mostly grown in the Langhe and from vineyards in the Roero and the Monferrato regions. Founded by Giovanni Sartirano, San Silvestro has been passed down through four generations, and today, it is run by cousins Paolo and Guido Sartirano. Following the family traditions and ethos, they hold the Equalitas certification for their sustainably cultivated vineyards and produce modern wines that express the Piedmont region's traditional varieties and distinctive terroir. Over the years, San Silvestro has gradually expanded beyond the local market, and their award-winning wines are internationally recognised. |
