Vinification:
Traditional Barolo with fermentation of about 15-20 days at 26°C. De-stemming, soft crushing; the must is pumped over with the dèlastage system to maximise the extraction of colour and varietal aromas. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is put into Slavonian and French oak tonneaux with weekly top-ups of the level and tasting tests to ensure the wine evolves as well as possible.

3 years, 2 of which in tonneaux and 1 in the bottle.
Pairings:
perfect with game and white and red meat dishes of the grand cuisine with white and brown sauces. Excellent with truffle. It is preferable to use a decanter and serve at 18°C.

Appreciate it listening to:
JOHANNES BRAHMS, Symphony No. 1 Op. 68 in C major.
Features:
garnet red in colour, ethereal bouquet of intense tar, with hints of dried flowers and a mineral note. Rich on the palate, balanced and endowed with ripe tannins that give the wine harmony, great distinction and intensity. Velvety, wine of remarkable class, exceptional richness and typicity, austere.
