Territory and wine style

The wine comes from the Mosconi area, one of the most interesting regions of Monforte d’Alba, in the heart of Piedmont. The exposure of the vineyards from South to South-West, combined with an altitude between 360 and 400 meters above sea level and the white, tuffaceous soils, contributes to defining a Barolo DOCG of remarkable complexity. The 2019 vintage required careful attention in the vineyard and produced high-quality grapes, with limited production and a profile of great balance between maturity, freshness, and structure.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense and vibrant garnet color, typical of the best expressions of Nebbiolo. On the nose, hints of sage, rosemary, and underbrush emerge, accompanied by floral notes and an elegant spice that enriches the bouquet. On the palate, the wine is broad, elegant, and supported by an important tannic structure, well-recognizable but consistent with the character of the denomination. The flavor profile is deep, with a long and persistent finish that invites a slow and thoughtful tasting.

Recommended pairings
