Barbaresco

Thirty year-old vines on clay-limestones soils, vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and aged in botte and barriques for 12-15 months. Pale cherry/orange in colour, aromatically floral, elegant and fine with velvety tannins. “ ... although this is not a single-vineyard expression, the wine shows a ton of territorial and varietal authenticity nonetheless. You get sharp and pinpoint aromas of purple fruits with lifted tones of licorice, earth and pressed blue flower. The mouthfeel is silky and taut.” (Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, 94 points)
