Wine: This wine represents BAROLO in its most classic form, in the fullness of our traditionalist style, obtained by skillfully blending all the vineyards of the winery.
It unites Barolo nebbiolos of different subvarieties: for example, the Lampia and Michet subvarieties bring structure and color, while the Rosé gives Barolo perfume and elegance.
It is the combination of vineyards that differ in history, age and soil: white marble in the Novello commune and looser and sandier on the Perno side.
The result is a wine of great intensity, harmonious and persistent with complex aromas.
