Vineyard and terroir
The 0.80 ha of vineyards lie in Sorì Montestefano, Patricone and Bibinet, with southern and southeastern exposures. The southern sites have deep clay-and-limestone soil, while the southeastern sites are cooler and lighter. Together they contribute tannic structure and elegance.
Grapes
100% Nebbiolo.
Vinification
Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless-steel tanks at controlled temperature for 22–26 days. Malolactic fermentation follows.
Ageing
The wine matures for 14–18 months in wooden vessels of different capacities, including barriques, tonneaux and small casks. It then rests in bottle for several months before release. After several years of maturation in wood and bottle, it reaches its peak of finesse, elegance and balance.
Tasting profile
Bright garnet in colour, with a delicate and elegant character. The aromatic profile includes violet, liquorice, dog rose, sweet tobacco, chocolate, vanilla, pepper and nutmeg. Its structure combines firm tannins and austerity with silkiness, complexity and approachability. The palate is decisive, compact, persistent and elegant.
Serving and pairing
Ideal with roast red meats, mature cheeses, traditional dishes from the Langhe, and other rich, refined preparations.
