Tasting: The long maceration and ageing in wood give our Nebbiolo d’Alba DOC a powerful yet elegant structure given by the noble tannins matured in this vineyard. It is a wine with a very broad bouquet that includes small red fruits, spices such as cinnamon and clove and flowers such as violets.

VINIFICATION

The grapes are gently crushed and destemmed. Fermentation takes place in contact with the skins for 8-9 days at a temperature of 28-29°C.

Ageing in wood is for 12 months and takes place in used oak casks and French barriques. It also matures in the bottle for at least 6 months.
