NATURAL WINES BY MORRA GABRIELE
Morra Gabriele is named after the grandfather of Gabriele Testa, whose family cellar in Macellai, a hamlet of Pocapaglia in the Roero, dates back to 1880 under the Pautasso name. Gabriele, a local farmer, brought it back to life with his friend Stefano Campaniello, a sommelier with years in restaurants across Europe. Barbera and Freisa grow around the cellar in Macellai. The Nebbiolo comes from small plots in well-known Barbaresco crus, including Ovello, Fausoni and Starderi, the last two in Neive.
Stefano runs the cellar. Fermentations start on their own and run long, and the wines age in concrete, steel and large old oak casks. Vineyard work follows the moon. We stock their Memorie 2022, a blend of young-vine Nebbiolo from Barbaresco and late-harvested Freisa from the family's Roero plot, aged in old concrete tanks. Their Langhe Nebbiolo 2023 is a straight Nebbiolo.
