About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Nebbiolo comes from five vineyards in five Piedmont communes: Barolo, Verduno, Grinzane Cavour, La Morra and Novello. The name "Lecinquevigne" means "five vineyards". Each terroir contributes its own character to the final blend.

Vinification

Fermentation is temperature-controlled and lasts 15 days, which preserves Nebbiolo's delicate structure and expressive character.

Ageing

The wine ages for about 2 years in large oak casks, which adds complexity without overwhelming the aromas. It then rests in bottle for 14 months.

Tasting profile

A classic Barolo that combines power, character and elegance. Its character is rich yet smooth, and it becomes more interesting with time.

Label / history

The name refers to the five vineyards in five communes from which the blend is made.
