About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Pora MGA. The 2021 technical sheet records 10.7 hectares with south and southwest exposure. The clay-limestone soil contains sandy veins, while the cru’s proximity to the Tanaro creates a microclimate associated with Pora’s open, approachable expression. Grapes for this release came from vineyards owned by Dellaferrera and Manzone.

Grapes

100% Nebbiolo.

Vinification

Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 30°C, followed by 28 days of skin maceration. Malolactic fermentation is completed.

Ageing

The wine matures for 30 months in oak casks and then for nine months in bottle. The main specification describes 25–50 hl oak casks and a minimum of 30 months in wood. The 2021 was bottled in May 2025.

Technical data

The 2021 production amounted to 20,000 bottles.

Tasting profile

Pora typically produces full-bodied, velvety wines with open, appealing fruit, balsamic notes and moderate tannins. The 2021 is complex, with intense ripe red fruit, balanced tannins and a persistent finish.

Serving and pairing

Pair with pasta and risotto, white or red meats, and game. Cellaring potential is approximately 30 years from the harvest.

Vintage notes
