Nebbiolo from a small parcel his family planted around fifty years ago in one of Barbaresco’s most famous crus, Roncagliette. The site is exposed full south and its firm clay-limestone soils lend the Nebbiolo from here power and finesse. This is macerated on the skins for two months before being pressed off to old botti for a couple of years. A cooler vintage has rendered a compact, elegant and fine-boned wine of great poise, with a long life ahead.
