About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Nebbiolo grapes are organically grown in the Barolo area on limestone and clay soils, which contribute to the wine’s structure.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine ages for 38 months in oak barrels.

Serving and pairing

Open the bottle 2–3 hours before serving and use a large wine glass.

Label / history

The Ricossa family’s history began in the late 1800s in the Asti area of Piedmont, where the family founded a winery. The winery continues the family’s winemaking traditions today.
