Here is a wonderful example of how to manage and coax the best from the assertive tannins of this famous Piedmont variety. Yes, the tannins are there, they have to be, but the bright red fruits show a lift of rhubarb and cranberry with a little bright raspberry confection. I could drink a bit of this, it has that chalky ironstone and brick dust character you often find in the Barolos of Piedmont.

Fermented on skins for 5 months and matured in 100% seasoned French oak hogsheads for 11 months prior to blending and bottling.
Pale garnet with bright ruby hues. Delicate aromas of red cherry, raspberry, rosehip, red liquorice, bergamot, tarragon, dried fig and tea leaf. A complex and layered palate of red berries, plum and cherry is framed by lingering notes of rose petal, nutmeg and crushed dried herbs, balanced by minerality, refined tannins and fresh acidity for a long finish.
