In Vezza d’Alba, in the heart of the Roero region, more than three generations of the Demari Giovanni family have managed their estate with hard work and a truly passionate love of viticulture. The winery has over 20 hectares of vineyards in the areas of Vezza, Castagnito, Castellinaldo and Guarena. The company’s choice to produce wine exclusively from grapes from its own vineyards guarantees the authenticity of the product. Demarie also focuses on the sustainability of their wines: in 2020, their first wine was certified as a BIO product.

Winemaking

The name “Sabbia” translates as sand. The name is meaningful because sandy hills predominate here in Roero. The orange colour of the wine is also reminiscent of sand.The spontaneous fermentation of the natural yeast for 20 days in the tank without any temperature control, left in contact with the skins for another 20-25 days before being transferred to casks. After fermentation in tanks, the wine is aged for 4 months in neutral French oak barrels before being bottled. Filtration with a paper filter.

Tasting notes

The main influence on this wine is a long maceration of Arneis white grape skins. The wine is made like a red wine and the tannins, colour and texture of this amber wine express notes of herbal tea with stone fruit; peach, apricot, sage, saffron and roasted almond. The natural yeast’s wild fermentation offers a unique expression.

Pairing recommendation

Shellfish and white meat, Moroccan and Persian dishes, yellow curries from India or any dish with a moderately spicy earthy flavour. Serve at 8-10 °C, letting the wine breathe for up to 30 minutes before serving. Allowing this wine to breathe opens up more aromas and flavours.
