The winery is based in Castiglione Falletto, in a decidedly happy area between Bussia and Villero. The owned vineyards have an area of about 10 hectares, mainly cultivated around the company buildings. A splendid family business managed by Livia Fontana, who follows in the footsteps of her father Ettore, now supported by her sons Lorenzo and Michele.
Of a red color with garnet hues to the eye, the olfactory profile opens with scents of rose and cinchona, mixed with fruity aromas of cherries in alcohol and balsamic hints. The sip opens with a vigorous structure, a taste with continuous sapidity also on the finish, which refers to delicious nuances of red fruits and licorice.
It is recommended to combine it with grilled or baked red meats; it is also perfect with important traditional dishes and aged cheeses.
