Tasting Notes

Arborina is the historic family vineyard, the winery and the house sit right on top of it. It’s a beautiful south facing bowl, 10 hectares in total and we own 1.5. Arborina was never really considered till 1980 when Elio was the first one to bottle it separately, Elio always jokes that he made Arborina famous and Arborina made him famous. Up to today there are another five winemakers that release this single vineyard: Mauro Veglio, Giovanni Corino, Renato Corino, Bovio and Marco Curto.  Arborina, especially in 2016, is perfumed and gracious, the tannins are silky, supple and nuanced. In general, this is a vineyard that truly represents the characteristics of La Morra, being very bright lifted and feminine.  - Silvia Altare
