Productivity 70 qli/ha, choosing the best Nebbiolo grapes. Yield 50% Organoleptic characteristics Ruby red color tending to garnet during aging. Intense aroma obtained with the withering of the grapes. The aromas developed with drying and refinement make the wine fine and extremely intense. | Vineyards The most exposed vineyard to the sun is chosen to produce this wine, but also the highest one at sea level, in order to guarantee a greater thermal shock, which is extremely important for the health of the wine and for its organoleptic characteristics.

Aging: 14 months in barrique barrels (60% new - 40% used / 225 lt.), with subsequent 6 months in steel and a further year in the bottle, before being marketed.
