Tasting notes

Nebbiolo grapes 100%.

Vibrant garnet.

Aromas well centered on black and red fruit, sweet touches of cherry and more tense touches of blackberry and blueberry. A floral souvenir of violet.

Fresh and dry mouth, with a dense and precise tannin structure. Composed and not pretentious at all, an important wine.

With a properly cooked fillet goes without fail. Birds, a beautiful thrush or a good partridge, small game or a scalloped duck breast.

Service temperature: 18 °C
