Made from Nebbiolo grapes and matured in large wooden vats for three years. Calling this a small masterpiece of Italian winemaking would not be a crime and it came from a great year. A faint red color with distinct garnet nuances and an orange edge. The aromas are typical of the cru, particularly intense and transformed by perfect bottle aging. The scents of wilted flowers are an authentic and assorted bouquet and are followed by notes of cinchona, underbrush and humus with distinct and particular notes of rust and iron. The unbridled mouthfeel is vibrant from the acidity with tannins that have a disarming finesse. The after-aroma is of pine needles that stimulate a long memory.
