Origin

Produced in the Piedmont region of Italy, specifically from the Barolo DOCG area, renowned for its prestigious Nebbiolo-based wines.

Variety

100% Nebbiolo grape variety, known for its complex aromas and aging potential.

Production

The wine undergoes traditional fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in large Slavonian oak casks for approximately 24 to 36 months. This process enhances the wine’s structure and complexity while preserving the varietal character of Nebbiolo.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep garnet red with brick hues developing with age.
  • Aroma: Intense and complex bouquet featuring notes of rose petals, tar, cherry, dried herbs, and subtle hints of spice and earth.
  • Palate: Full-bodied with firm tannins, balanced acidity, and flavors of ripe red fruit, licorice, and a mineral finish.
  • Finish: Long and persistent, showcasing elegance and depth.

Food pairings

Ideal to accompany rich and flavorful dishes that complement its structure and tannins.

  • Roasted or grilled red meats such as beef and lamb
  • Game dishes including venison and wild boar
  • Mature hard cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano and aged Pecorino
  • Truffle-based dishes and mushroom risottos
