Tasting Notes

Crafted from Nebbiolo 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards 20 years old vines, rooted on a clayey calcareous soil with traces of sand and sandstone at 310 meters above sea level. Vinification: alcholic fermentation in steel vats. The wine is aged 24 months in the German and Austrian oak barrels. A wine true to Piedmont tradition, built for age-worthy elegance.
