Light ruby red with the transparency typical of Nebbiolo. Classic red berry and savory aromatics. Beautifully balanced palate, with a complex mélange of red raspberry, cherry and fresh cranberry, with green, slightly stemmy—then powdery tannins. Persistent, flavorful finish.

The philosophy of our company is based on a few essential principles. Great care for the work in the vineyards to obtain high quality wines while keeping their character and respecting the nature that surrounds us. For this reason we use mostly copper and sulphur-based products and avoid pesticides, thus respecting the land, the environment and the health of the consumer as well as that of all of us working in the vineyards. We use only natural fertilizers.

We reduce the yield of the vine by pruning twice during the summer months so as to carefully select the bunches. In this way the remaining grapes reach perfect ripeness and balance and a consequent superior quality.
A further selection is made during the harvest where the grapes are picked exclusively by hand, as most of the work in the vineyard.

100% Nebbiolo from La Morra in the Piedmont

5-7 days of maceration in temperature-controlled rotary fermenters at 25-30°C. After the drawing off, it is decanted into stainless steel tanks for the precipitation of deposits, where it remains until the end of sugars and malolactic fermentations. After that it is racked off and left to mature for 8-10 months in steel tanks, at the end of which it is bottled and marketed.
