Tasting Notes

Crafted from Dolcetto 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards 30 years old vines cultivate according to the guyot system, rooted in a calcareous clayey soil at 540 metres above sea level.
