It is bottled at 12.5% alcohol by volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe estate is located in Monforte d'Alba, a municipality in the province of Cuneo within the Piedmont region. Forming the southeastern part of the Langhe hills, Monforte d'Alba is one of the eleven official communes authorized to produce Barolo DOCG. While the area is globally recognized for its red wines, it also has a tradition of cultivating grapes for classic sparkling wines. The local terroir is characterized by steep slopes and a subsoil of marine origin dating back to the Serravallian geological epoch. The well-drained, nutrient-poor soil consists predominantly of compact limestone, clayey marl, and sandstone, locally known as Arenarie di Diano, which forces the vines' roots to search deep into the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePiedmont, which literally translates to \"at the foot of the mountain,\" is situated in northwestern Italy and is bordered by the Alps. It is considered one of the world's most prestigious wine regions, celebrated for its small, family-run wineries and a profound dedication to terroir. The dramatic, steep hills of the region are frequently enveloped in thick morning fog during the autumn months, a natural phenomenon that protects the grapes and facilitates a long, steady ripening process. Beyond its viticultural heritage, Piedmont is a renowned gastronomic center, famous for its exclusive white truffles from Alba and local hazelnuts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Podere Rocche dei Manzoni di Valentino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56885486321990,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-261_953e9fa2-92d9-4a27-9da2-7633b6347bc2.jpg?v=1782908972","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.eu\/products\/spumante-podere-rocche-dei-manzoni-1998","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
