Barolo DOCG
100% Nebbiolo. The estate has 1ha of vines (average of 60 years old) in Villero, in Castiglione Falleto, with a southwest aspect. Clay, Helvetian limestone and a strong presence of iron characterises the soil. The winemaking is traditional with long natural ferments (around 40 days) followed by 6 months in steel to cohere, and then ageing in 35–50hl Slavonian casks for 30 months.
This vintage displays an enviable mix of power, acidity, ripeness and harmony similar in quality to the legendary 2010 vintage. Maturing very slowly over the next 25-35 years. R&R
