Area of origin

Langhe. The vineyards of the supply chain are located in the area surrounding Alba and Roero and the grapes for this classic method come from an area of approximately 6 hectares in the Verduno and Montaldo Roero area, on calcareous, clayey and silty soil.

Soil

Calcareous silty clay

Vintage

The harvest is carried out at the best time - usually between the end of August and the beginning of September - to obtain the right acidity and not excessive alcohol potential from the grapes. The grapes are harvested manually in small boxes to preserve their integrity and the natural acidity typical of the vine.

Ripening

Maturation on the lees for a minimum of 24 months, disgorgement à la glace. Maturation in bottle for a minimum of 3 months before being put on the market.

Tasting notes

It has a pale powder pink color with a fine, persistent, and elegant froth. The nose shows hints of freshly baked bread, nutmeg, rose petals, currant, raisins, and wild strawberries. The palate is crunchy, fresh, intense, and persistent with typical notes of the nebbiolo grape. The wine is elegant, structured, and balanced.

Food pairings

Enjoy this wine with raw oysters, grilled or baked fatty fish, shrimp risotto, or fresh and decadent cheese. Serve at 4-6°C
