Tasting Notes

This Langhe DOC captures the distinctive personality of Piedmont terroir. 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 on the hills of Monteu Roero and Vezza d'Alba at 260-280 meters above sea level, with southwest exposure. Vinification: spontaneous fermentation in concrete followed by malolactic fermentation in wood and steel. The wine is aged 7 months in French oak barrels and used barriques. A wine combining Piedmont's trademark power with finesse and complexity.
