Intense violet color. Mature fruit, cacao, prune, spicy, fragrant nose. Full and fresh mouth. Very soft tannins. Medium life span. Expresses itself best in the first 4-5 years of life, but enjoyable until about 10 years.
100% Barbera grapes, from the various vineyards of the Monfalletto Estate in Lamorrese and Roero. Differing altitudes and exposures lend to a complexity of aromas. Varying ages of vines, from clay and sandy soils. Maturation in different French and Slovenian wood casks for about 7-8 months. Bottled in the beginning of the summer and released on the market after a few months.
Fermentation for about 20 days with skin contact for 7-8 days in stainless steel and frequent pumping over. Malolatic fermentation in wood until December.
Food Pairing: Classic pairing with Piedmont mixed boiled meats, cooked salami with lentils, vegetable flan and the traditional “bagna coada” (warm dip or fondue).
