Tasting Notes

This exceptional Piemonte DOC showcases the authentic character of Piedmont. Its 14% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Pinot Noir 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 from the municipality of Barolo, from 15-20 year old vines located at 300 meters above sea level on marly and calcareous soil. Vinification: alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature and maceration on the skins for 10 days. Complete malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged 18 months in barrique. A wine combining Piedmont's trademark power with finesse and complexity.
