About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Nebbiolo grows in Piedmont on sandy soils rich in limestone.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and gently pressed at the winery. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine ages for 9 months in oak barrels, then rests for at least 12 months in bottle in the winery's cellars before release.

Tasting profile

Well balanced.

Serving and pairing

Pairs with grilled or roasted meats, game, terrines, savory puddings and medium-aged cheeses.
