About this Wine

Centoerbe di Bordiga is a natural liqueur born from the refinement of an ancient recipe over the years. In it, infusions and distillates of aromatic herbs with digestive power, flowers and roots from the Alpine territory of the Occitan Valleys surrounding the distillery are arranged. The collection takes place by experts and willing mountain dwellers who choose and dry the raw materials that will be infused with care and with natural methods. This is carried out using the finest sugar and pure water from the Alps. The final liqueur is the synthesis of herbs, flowers and roots that decree the aroma and taste that has been handed down and perfected for years. It proves excellent at the end of a meal.

Wines of Piedmont

In the North-Western corner of Italy, with a backdrop of the visually stunning Alps, Piedmont is a great place to visit for wine tourism. It is also home to some of the most sought-after wines in the country.

Nebbiolo is the region’s most prestigious grape variety, a red variety not seen much in Australia. Wines made from this grape are powerful with remarkably high levels of tannins but a balancing acidity. The Piedmont region offers the grapes with a reliable autumn fog that provides a cooling effect which is particularly beneficial to the growth of Nebbiolo. This pre-harvest fog (“nebbia” in Italian) is actually where the grape’s name comes from. The fog is vital in that it prolongs the time spent on the vine and allows the grapes to achieve full ripeness.

The most famous examples of Nebbiolo come from the appellations (subregions) of Barolo and Barbaresco, known for their ability to age well, firm tannins and distinct smell of tar and roses. Barolo is a big tannic expression of Nebbiolo, while Barbaresco only about 15km away makes a more elegant style. Barolo wines are generally the more expensive of the two and are known to cellar for decades.

By volume however, Barbera is the most planted red grape in Piedmont. This grape makes a juicy, low tannin but high acidity easy-going red. Perhaps somewhat like a lighter style Shiraz.

While there are quite a few white varieties planted in the region, the most notable is Moscato d’Asti, made in a sparkling style in the Asti subregion.
