Tasting Notes

This prestigious Barolo DOCG represents the pinnacle of Italian winemaking excellence. With 14% alcohol content, it offers a full-bodied and robust structure. Crafted from Nebbiolo 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from Cerretta cru from Serralunga d’Alba at 360 m above sea level, faced to South-East. Vinification: fermentation with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats for about 28 days. The wine is aged 18-36 months in big oak casks of the Forest of Fontainebleau, depending on the vintage. A wine true to Piedmont tradition, built for age-worthy elegance.
