Characteristics
Nebbiolo grapes sourced from Santa Maria and Serra dei Turchi vineyards planted in the well-known Barolo village of La Morra. The relatively young soils compared to the rest of the Barolo area, give wines with considerable readiness and excellent aromas from the first years of aging. Most elegant cru of the Barolo region. 26 months of wood maturation on 35 hl big casks. Total production of 4.362 bottles.
Food pairing
Nice companion to steak tartare, grilled steak, sweetbreads and beef or veal dishes with mushrooms or truffles. Combine with feathered game, such as partridge, pheasant, wild duck and pigeon or guineafowl and quail. A classic with risotto with porcini or ceps.
