Vineyard & Winery
Hand-selected grapes and delicate processing (soft pressing with partial use of dry ice to preserve aromas). Fermentation in open tonneau for ~20 days, with a portion in stainless steel; aging 18 months in 750 L amphorae and selected barriques. The wine is bottled in July 2022, without filtration.

Sensory Profile

• Color: vibrant ruby red.

• Nose: blackberry and crisp cherry, a slight spice, hints of herbs and undergrowth.

• Palate: full-bodied yet elegant, well-integrated tannins, juicy acidity that provides dynamism; long and satisfying finish, with fruity notes and an elegant spicy trail.

Style & Pairings
A Pinot Noir with Langhe character: precise, clean, textural, capable of combining fruit and verticality. Excellent with noble poultry, vitello tonnato, tajarin with white ragù, sautéed mushrooms, and medium-aged cheeses.
