If it grows together, it goes together. Beef, polenta, and mushrooms are central to the Piemonte region in NW Italy, and so is the Nebbiolo grape. We chose a Nebbiolo from slightly east of Piemonte for its earth, leather, and dried fruit. After a bite and a sip, we could hardly see through the fog settled on the hills as we left the underground osteria on this moonless winter night.
