Tasting Notes
Maturation
In French oak barriques for almost 8 months with extensive
lees contact.
Palate
Spicy, creamy and intense with a soft but long aftertaste.
Sweet fruit, hot and ripe, still very fresh with an elegant
touch of oak. Long life. Produced in very small quantity.
Vinification
The grapes are picked in small baskets, then softly pressed
at low temperature. The fermentation starts in stainless
steel tanks and then finishes in French oak barriques, new
for only one third.
Region Notes
Sourced from our Family-owned vineyards “Il Bricco” in
Treiso, located in the Barbaresco area, and “Colombaro” in
Serralunga d’Alba, located in the Barolo area, which will
be replaced from the 2019 vintage with the “Mosconi”
vineyard in Monforte d’Alba. Since the 1985 vintage, it
represents our desire to produce a white wine with the
same body, complexity and ageing potential of the great
reds historically produced in the area.
