Tasting Notes
The vineyard is located in the municipality of Barbaresco, in lean soil, rich in mineral salts and densely stratified. It comes from old clones and from a particular selection, fermented and aged in steel and concrete.
It's immediately impressive but be patient and give it some time to open or decant. Brilliant and defined red fruits with an aromatic attitude of florals, menthol and rock mineral. It's fine and silky on the palate, with only the smallest of tannin granules, but heaps of them. Excellent. - Chris L
Arguably Italy’s most important fine wine region, Piedmont is synonymous with Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. It’s also home to a wide array of other compelling reds and whites that range from the austere to the juicy and joyful.
LOCATION:
Northwest Italy, bordering France and Switzerland, with the Alps to the north and the Apennines to the south.
TERROIR:
Rolling hills and foggy mornings define Langhe and Roero. Soils are mostly calcareous marl with sandy or clay-rich layers depending on the site. Continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.
VARIETIES:
Nebbiolo is king, producing powerful, tannic reds. Barbera and Dolcetto round out the red trio. For whites, look to Arneis, Cortese (Gavi), and Timorasso. Moscato is important in the Asti area.
