Appellation:  Barolo, ITALY

A critically acclaimed, beautifully refined expression of Nebbiolo from a single cru in Castiglione Falletto. It displays a garnet ruby hue and unfolds on the nose with ripe cherry, sweet spices, mint, sage, licorice, and subtle floral notes like lavender and dried roses . On the palate, it's full-bodied yet elegant, with vivid red fruit, savory spice, firm but polished tannins, and balanced acidity that leads to a long, mineral-tinged finish.
