THE COMPANY
Langhe Rosso 'Long Now' by Pelissero wants to express the concept of "long present" and is the name that some important Californian scientists and intellectuals have attributed to the particular clock depicted on the label, now present at the Museum of Science and Technology in London . A red from a recently acquired plot, not far from the company headquarters, the result of a selection of Nebbiolo and Barbera. Left to mature for about 15/18 months in small oak barrels, it is then assembled before bottling and left to rest for another 10/12 months in the bottle before being sold. The characteristics are those of an important, austere wine, capable of giving emotions even after many years.

Our family has always been dedicated to agriculture with a Langa and peasant DNA. We are in Treiso, a township that became independent from Barbaresco in 1957, and which is in the heart of the production zone of one of the top three Italian DOCG, King Nebbiolo. It is the grape varietal that more than any other has defined and will continue to define the history of our hills and of the national and international wine making. We are the heirs of this land and of this vine.
The spirit of continuous research in the vineyard, and afterwards in the cellar, plus passion, commitment and innovative dynamism are the firm bases that we combine with the pride of having reached the third generation of viticulturists. Our philosophy has not changed, however: we focus only on original varietals that are typical of our land, particularly Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto, which make up about 85% of our production. All the grapes that we use come from the 38 hectares that we own. We are able, with the help of knowledgeable colleagues, to directly supervise the entire production cycle, from pruning to marketing of 250,000 bottles every year.
