Tasting Notes

he color is dark garnet, with an elegant and intense bouquet of red fruit (raspberry, currant, pomegranate), menthol and various spices. The taste is rich and balanced with medium tannins that subtly linger through the long, satisfying finish.

Vineyards

The grapes for this wine come from south and southwest-facing vineyards that are between 20 and 40 years old, at approximately 300 to 350 yards in altitude. The terroir is white tufa terroir in the Visette (Bussia) part of Monforte d’Alba – the center of the Barolo region.

Winemaking

Maceration on skins took place over 20 days at controlled temperatures, with natural fermentation and indigenous yeasts. Seventy percent of the resulting wine was matured in Slavonian oak, with 30% aged in Tonneaux barriques, for 30 months. The wine spent another six months’ aging in the bottle, at a controlled temperature of 59 F (15 C).
