Region :

• Piedmont

Grape :

• Nebbiolo

This wine is medium-bodied, elegant, and intensely aromatic with a taut, fine-grained, and classic structure. The 2022 vintage—a warm year that yielded beautifully ripe fruit—opens with vibrant aromas of dried sour cherries, wild red berries, and crushed cranberries, layered with classic Nebbiolo notes of dried rose petals, leather, star anise, and a touch of pipe tobacco. On the palate, it exhibits great precision and energy, held together by firm, chalky tannins and a bright, mouth-watering acidity that gives the wine fantastic drive. It finishes dry, long, and mineral-driven, leaving lingering notes of blood orange zest, dried herbs, and earth.
