About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit is grown in the Monferrato Valley. Mountains shelter the vineyards from strong winds, while rivers provide humidity that supports ripening.

Grapes

The proportions of the blend are selected each year by the winery’s oenologist.

Vinification

Each variety is vinified separately and blended after fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matures for 10 months in French oak barrels.

Tasting profile

Harmonious and rich, with fruit and spice notes and smooth, velvety tannins.
