About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from the westernmost hills of San Rocco Seno d’Elvio in Alba, an area described as the “Terra di mezzo”—a middle ground where Nebbiolo cannot carry the Barbaresco or Barolo denomination. The vineyards face east and were planted between 1968 and 2012. Their marly soils are predominantly limestone, crossed by veins of sand.
Grapes
100% Nebbiolo.
Ageing
The wine matures for approximately eight months in oak casks, followed by around four months of bottle ageing.
Label / history
