About the wine

An innovative Nebbiolo that revives an ancient technique used by Piedmontese winemakers centuries ago. During maceration, Barbera grape skins are added to soften the tannins and lift the fruit. Complex aromas of flowers, blackberry and balsamic, with soft tannins and generous fruit in harmony.
