About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie between the villages of Sinio and Serralunga d'Alba.

Grapes

Nebbiolo is complemented by a small amount of Barbera.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand from late September to early October. After destemming, the berries are pressed and macerated, followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless-steel tanks.

Tasting profile

Pleasant and well balanced, with classic Nebbiolo character, a smooth texture, firm tannins and an inviting aroma.

Serving and pairing

Pairs especially well with Italian dishes such as ravioli and vinello tonato, as well as white meat, ham and cured meats.
