For lovers of Nebbiolo- this is such a beautiful and approachable expression from the northern reaches of Piedmont. The volcanic soils here and higher elevation lead the wine to being simultaneously light on its feet and rich with sapid sanguine red fruit. A beautiful nose with fresh wild flowers spruce and fresh herbs with wild cherry iron and dried herbs on the palate. The blend is 80% Nebbiolo with 10% Croatina and 10% Vespaiolo. Fermentation happens in concrete tanks with native yeast then aging for 2 years in used barriques. No filtering fining or other additions except a modicum of sulfur. – –
