About this wine
Grapes
The variety has a long history of cultivation on the hills of the Langhe.
Vinification
Harvest begins in the second half of September, as the grapes start to wither. Traditional red-wine vinification involves pumping the must over the cap of grape skins, followed by malolactic fermentation at a controlled temperature.
Ageing
The wine matures for 12 months in French oak barrels. During this period, it undergoes a series of stirring stages that promote natural clarification.
Tasting profile
The wine has a pleasant aroma and an appealing taste.
