About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The wine comes from the Montestefano MGA, whose soils are composed of clay and limestone.

Grapes

100% Nebbiolo.

Vinification

Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks at 30°C, followed by 28 days of maceration on the skins. Malolactic fermentation is completed.

Ageing

The wine matures for a minimum of 30 months in oak casks with capacities of 25–50 hl. Bottling takes place in June.

Tasting profile

Full and enveloping, with considerable persistence. It is sometimes nicknamed “the Barolo of Barbaresco.”

Serving and pairing

Suggested pairings include pasta and risotto, white and red meats, and game.
