Tasting Notes

This Barolo DOCG stands as a benchmark for Piedmont's highest quality classification. At 14.5% alcohol, it delivers real concentration and power on the palate. 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 1,5 hectares at 340 m above sea level, on a soil full of limestone and clay. Vinification: in horizontal fermentation tanks for 12-15 days. The wine is aged 24 months in oak barrels of 25 hl. A wine showcasing the fog-kissed hills of the Langhe.
