Soft and balanced Nebbiolo, ruby red in color with garnet reflections. On the nose it lends mainly towards aromas of rose, cherry and strawberry, but also releases discreet woody, spicy and earthy notes. On the palate it is linear and slender, with rounded and medium-bodied flavors, aided during drinking by a gentle but dominant tannic texture. Vegan.

Piedmont
Piedmont experienced a warm and dry winter followed by a mild March, which led to an early budbreak. Cooler temperatures and rain arrived in June which then lead to a mellow summer with temperatures never peaking above 35°C. A cool front descended on Northern Italy in September, prompting producers to begin planning for an early harvest. Results are a very well balanced and full style of Nebbiolo. Great quality compared to previous years.
Alba
Layers of Marl with significant amounts of fine sediment of silt and clay. Grown at 400m of elevation.
