Where does it come from
This red wine originates in Piedmont, in the area of Alba, within the prestigious Barbaresco region.

This expertise translates into a rigorous stylistic approach, capable of conveying the authentic Langhe identity in the glass, with a deep, vigorous expression intimately linked to its terroir.
How is it produced
The processing of Nebbiolo aims to enhance the elegance that distinguishes Barbaresco. Every stage of the process is designed to preserve the varietal freshness, extracting a silky and deep tannic texture that ensures excellent ageing potential. To fully appreciate its complexity, it is recommended to decant for about an hour and serve at a temperature of 16-18°C. At the table, it pairs harmoniously with braised meats, lamb, mushrooms, mature cheeses and classic Piedmontese tajarin.
