From vines planted in the “cru” Valeirano. The wine is racked into large “botte” (casks) plus several barriques to account for the overflow. The wine is then aged for 20 to 24 months prior to being bottled, unfined and unfiltered. There is elegance to this Barbaresco alongside the rather sturdy tannins that frame the spice-driven fruit at the center of this wine’s profile. A classic wine of the appellation with woodsy notes, spry acidity and excellent lift on the palate.
WINE ENTHUSIAST, KERIN O'KEEFE 96 POINTS - "Forest floor, camphor and blue flower aromas mingle with fennel seed on this fragrant, delicious red. Reflecting the nose, the linear, focused palate features juicy red cherry, pomegranate, cinnamon and star anise set against taut, refined tannins. Bright acidity keeps it energized and gives it serious aging potential. Drink 2027–2039."
