- Rivalling Barolo as Piedmont's best red wine, this wine has delicate, refined, savoury aromas with baked sour cherry and earthy tones. This elegant and refined garnet-coloured wine delivers delicate, complex, and refined aromas, with ethereal notes of rose petals and tea layered upon small red berry fruits. The palate is silky and beautifully balanced, with soft, fine tannins and remarkable length on the finish.
Vinification occurred in temperature-controlled tanks, with maceration lasting 17 to 18 days on the skins. A gentle 'shower system' of submerging the cap was used during fermentation, which took place between 27 and 32°C. The malolactic conversion occurred in the tank before the wine was racked to large oak casks for 18 months. Further refinement took place in the bottle for a minimum of six months.

Winery | Produced in Barbaresco, this wine's grapes come from the Cascina Minuto C.E.G., which includes approximately three hectares of Nebbiolo purely for the production of Barbaresco wine. Situated on a notable slope, the vineyard has excellent sun exposure. The vines are grown in a bluish-grey calcareous marl soil with clay, which is poor in organic substances but rich in calcium and magnesium. |
