Tasting Notes
Made from Nebbiolo grapes grown on one of the most historic vineyards in Neive, the 2008 is elegant and complex with sweet plum and cassis aromas, intermingled with prunes, dried fruits and herbs. On the palate, ripe, soft fruit is balanced by fine tannins and delicate mineral notes. This is a beguiling and wonderfully expressive wine which opens up in the glass. Surprisingly attractive now, it will continue to develop over a long time. Drink from 2015 to 2030 and beyond.Reviews & Scores
Pretty blueberry, black cherry, jam and liquorice on the nose. Slightly earthy palate with a good structure of natural acidity and tannins at the end. It has a delicate tar and liquorice finish. Elegant. Drink: 2012-2017Score: 17.5/20 Points

TASTING NOTES
A focused and distinct nose, closed and earthy, expressing fresh truffles and some savoury and balsamic tones. Complex and charming palate. Firm, gritty tannins. Solid and full bodied, warm with a generous finish combined with a delicate freshness. A complete wine, gastronomic and epicurean.
