Piemonte DOC

This Pinot Noir represents the highest expression of our production. The grapes come from our most renowned cru, where Pinot Noir develops a particularly noble and elegant character, with greater structure and aromatic depth.
To fully express its potential, this Piedmontese Pinot Noir is given the time it requires: it first matures in stainless steel and oak — both large casks and tonneaux — gaining body, complexity, and roundness. It then continues its long bottle aging, during which time enhances its elegance, finesse, and remarkable ageing potential.
The result is a Pinot Noir of great structure and longevity, capable of conveying the character of the Alta Langa through balance, minerality, and a refined aromatic expression, with outstanding cellaring potential.

Grapes

100% Pinot Nero.

Color

Intense ruby red.

Bouquet

The bouquet is profoundly elegant, opening with notable complexity and intensity, immediately revealing hints of violet and dog rose. This evolves into aromas of ripe cherry and strawberry, enhanced by subtle herbal notes and vanilla. The olfactory experience is completed by spicy touches of nutmeg, adding further depth.

Taste

On the palate, the wine exudes grace and elegance. Its structure is excellent, supported by fine, velvety tannins that caress the mouth. Fruity notes harmonize with the nuanced influences of ageing in tonneaux. Hints of black pepper and aromatic herbs complement balanced minerality and refreshing acidity, highlighting the unique terroir of the grapes. This Pinot Noir is highly structured and reveals itself as a wine in evolution, destined for long-term ageing.
