Description

A graceful and finely detailed expression of this prized cru. Aromatically lifted, it opens with notes of wild strawberries, crushed rose petals, sweet herbs, and a touch of blood orange, underpinned by a delicate earthy nuance. The palate is pure and vibrant, with silky tannins and a refreshing line of acidity that gives the wine superb clarity and length. Red fruit, floral tones, and a subtle savoury edge intertwine seamlessly, leading to an elegant, lingering finish. Beautifully balanced and precise, this Barbaresco offers immediate charm but will reward careful cellaring.

Piedmont

Piedmont or Piemonte, located in northwestern Italy, is renowned for its prestigious and diverse wines. The region's varied climate and rich soils, particularly in the Langhe and Monferrato areas, are ideal for viticulture. It is famous for its robust reds, especially Barolo and Barbaresco, both made from the Nebbiolo grape, known for their complex aromas, rich tannins, and ageing potential. It also excels in Barbera, producing wines with vibrant acidity and cherry notes, and Dolcetto, offering fruit-forward, approachable reds. On the white side, Gavi, made from the Cortese grape, is known for its crisp, refreshing character. Piemonte’s blend of traditional winemaking techniques and modern innovations offers a rich and sophisticated wine experience.
