It is produced from one of the company’s historic vineyards, in the steep and sunny hill of Valmaggiore, which has always been considered the cradle of the best Nebbioli of the left Tanaro.
The system was built by Nonno Antonio with his brother Giovanni, before the latter was called to arms during World War II, so we have a very close relationship with him.
The slope of 40% does not allow entry with tractors, so all the work must be done manually. Furthermore, the space between one row and another is very small (about 1 meter) and the structure has always remained unchanged over the years. Just think that today in a vineyard the distance between the rows must allow the passage by means of transport so it is on average 2.50 meters.
The vineyard faces south-west and is located on top of a hill, surrounded by the wild woods of Roero, where the Sentiero del Tasso path also passes ( https://www.ecomuseodellerocche.it/it/sentieri/18/sentiero-del-tasso ).
Color: Intense ruby red wine with garnet reflections, elegant and brilliant. In the glass it is fluid, pronouncing large and pronounced arches.
Scent: aromas of overripe red fruit and vanilla, on the finish notes of coffee.
Taste: elegant and pleasantly fresh, it has a good full tannic structure that reaches greater balance with bottle aging. Structured and fine, it maintains the characteristics of freshness typical of Roero wines even after aging, thanks to the second passage barrels.
Food pairings: A full-bodied but at the same time elegant and fine wine, it pairs excellently with robust main courses of meat (roasts and game) and well-aged cheeses, but it also expresses its qualities with first courses (agnolotti, gnocchi, tagliatelle).
