Nabarì Monferrato Dolcetto DOC is born of the three red wines produced at La Chiara. Following the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation processes, which are conducted separately for each wine in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, the product is assembled in small wooden barriques, where it ages for about 10 months before it is bottled.

Nabarì Monferrato Dolcetto DOC’s colour is an intense and deep ruby red. Its scent is rich, with a pleasing, slightly herbaceous finish. Its dry, full-bodied, robust, harmonious, and velvety taste is characterised by a good, elegant structure. It goes particularly well with game, fondue with truffles, red meat, aged cheeses.

The Manufacturer: Tenuta La Chiara – Gavi

OUR LAND: GAVI

Very few regions in the world can boast a position and climate so favourable they can produce noble grapes yielding such valuable wines.

Undeniably, one of these fortunate lands is the land surrounding the town of Gavi, where the soil, the temperature, altitude and morphology all combine to give life to a landscape covered with thick rows of vines and wine-making enterprises.

This is the Val Lemme area of Piedmont, at the border with Liguria, a land with centuries old wine growing and wine making traditions.

It benefits from the temperate climate of the hills and the breeze coming from nearby Ligurian Sea: an area where the climate is not too hot, but the sun shines the year round.

OUR FAMILY: THE BERGAGLIOS

The Bergaglios: a family that has always been inextricably linked with the Gavi region and its wine-growing traditions.

For three generations, their name has been synonymous with quality, experience, harmony.

An atmosphere that is immediately perceived as you reach the farm. A family-run business whose success lies in these roots, with a fourth generation of extremely young future entrepreneurs who are ready to take up the challenges of the third millennium.

The Azienda Agricola La Chiara rises a few kilometres from the centre of Gavi, on the hills of the Ligurian Preappennino mountain chain. It was founded by Ferdinando Bergaglio, born in 1912 in a family of farmers, and his son Roberto.
