About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in the Monvigliero vineyard on a hillside in Verduno, on vines aged 30–40 years.

Vinification

Traditional vinification includes fermentation under strict temperature control.

Ageing

The wine ages for two years in oak barrels, followed by six months in bottle.

Tasting profile

It has an expressive bouquet and rich flavour. Refreshing acidity and rounded tannins give it good balance, while the texture is silky and smooth. The structure is refined and the finish long.
