The message that this selection embodies is that of a product that can compete with the more structured Piedmontese reds, capable of facing decidedly long aging periods in absolute tranquility without having to give up the typical elegance of Nebbioli grown on the Roero hills .
The grapes are harvested around mid-October. The maceration with the skins is always long and slow to allow the must to be enriched with all the natural components contained in the grape. After racking, the wine is placed in small barrels of different passages, where the malolactic fermentation concludes and where it remains for at least 22-24 months. Another year of maturation in the tranquility of the ancient cellars after bottling prepares the product for its debut.
In the glass it presents an intense and brilliant ruby red color. On the nose it is refined and very aromatic, the fruity aromas stand out at first of raspberry and blackberry, and subsequently hints of cocoa, cinnamon and noble woods emerge. LThe entry on the palate is full and with great character, followed by an excellent tannic progression. The elegance of the Roero tannins and the perfect balance between them and the alcohol result in a long and harmonious finish to be enjoyed.
The remarkable structure and fullness of this wine require large meat dishes, roasts, game and mature cheeses. A red of great value and quality which after the first sip will immediately give great emotions.
