Tasting Notes
Aroma
The nose is rich and potent. Hints of flowers and ripe
fruit emerge.
Appearance
Ruby red colour with subtle garnet hues.
Palate
On the palate it is full-bodied. Notes of
small red fruit (strawberry, raspberry). The tannins are
mature but at the same time soft and silky. The hint of
almond on the finish is particularly striking. Overall,
well balanced and refined.
Vinification
Grapes harvested by hand on September
29, 2020. Alcoholic fermentation lasts around 3 weeks
in a steel tank, in contact with the skins and with
regular pumping-overs. This period includes cold pre
and
post-fermentation maceration, involving the
traditional submerged-cap method. Malolactic
fermentation takes place in wood.
Region Notes
The grapes come from the MGA “Roncaglie” vineyard
in the municipality of Barbaresco, which has always
been recognized as one of the best areas in the
homonymous winegrowing area. Limestone- and
clay-rich soil, south/south-western exposure and
approximately 280 m asl. The average age of the
Guyot-cultivated vines is around 35 years, with a
density of around 4,600 plants per hectare.
