- A supple and elegant Barolo with expressive fruit aromas, spicy overtones, and distinctive violet notes typical of the Brunate vineyard, which goes through to a liquorice sensation on the long finish.
The grapes were destemmed and gently crushed before being transferred into stainless steel tanks for fermentation. Using the traditional submerged cap method, they spent three weeks with skin contact, including pre-and post-fermentation maceration. The wine was transferred to oak, where malolactic conversion took place. It was matured for 32 months in large Slavonian and French oak casks and bottled without filtration.

| Winery | The grapes are grown in the historical Cru vineyard Brunate in La Morra, south-facing towards Barolo. The vines are planted at 300 to 400 meters above sea level, where they experience good diurnal temperature shifts, which create a long hang time, allowing the grapes to build complexity and retain natural acidity gradually. The average age of the vines is 55 years, and the low-yielding vines are planted at a density of 4,600 vines per hectare and trained according to the Guyot trellis system. The soil is calcareous and clayey with the renowned Marne di Sant’Agata, a limestone-rich marl in which the Nebbiolo variety thrives and produces balanced, elegant wines. The vines are hand-harvested in October when the grapes have reached optimal maturity. |
