Territory and style of the wine

The grapes come from owned vineyards adjacent to the winery, in the Municipality of Serralunga d'Alba, in a context suited for the production of Barolo with significant structure and a distinct identity. The exposure to the south, southeast, and east, along with an altitude between 250 and 280 meters above sea level, favors balanced ripening, while the soils of the Lequio formation, with sands, sandstones, and gray silty marls, help define a tense, deep, and territorial profile. The vinification involves manual selection of the grapes and a long maceration, followed by aging in large French and Austrian oak barrels, resulting in a wine faithful to the tradition of Barolo DOCG but readable with modern precision.
