Tasting notes:
In the glass, it presents a delicate pink color with orange highlights. The bouquet is rich in floral aromas, violets, and rose petals, with a very fresh presence of red fruits, black cherry, strawberry, and pomegranate. On the palate, it is fresh and juicy, very pleasant to taste, with a light finish of pink grapefruit. It has good structure and roundness, once again confirming the character of Nebbiolo as an expression of its terroir.
Very versatile, it pairs excellently with raw fish, risotto, fried meats, and vegetables. It also pairs well with cured meats and cheeses, and is best enjoyed fresh with barbecued meats.

Grape harvest period: September 21st, later than usual, a situation that has also occurred for other vineyards and for Nebbiolo from Langhe Nebbiolo or Barolo.
