Cordero Langhe DOC Rosso 2013
About the wine
The authentic Italian house wine that you wish you could find in the states... it's here.
- Rich, complex and fruity red made with a beguiling blend of Nebbiolo's unique character and Barbera's robust fruit.
- The Cordero family knows the Langhe region of Italy better than anybody, and Angels give them the freedom to work with the grapes and appellations they know taste best (instead of the ones that are most famous).
- So you get an incredible Italian food red at less than $11 - an absolute steal that will make any old pasta feel like an authentic Italian feast.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Gianfranco & Serena Cordero
Years Angel-funded: 2014-18
- This father and daughter combo are mega-qualified Italian winemakers and consultants who make beautiful Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera and Arneis wines from Piedmont.
- They started producing their own wine in 2006 when they decided to take on Serena's grandfather Teresio's vineyard so they could keep on working in his memory, and let their land be known all over the world.
- Gianfranco is one of the reasons Barolo is known as the King of Wines, and - with the help of Angel funding - Serena is ushering in a new generation of northern Italian wines with balance, elegance and flavor.
