Territory and wine style

The Monvigliero vineyard is historically considered one of the most important crus of Verduno and among the most prestigious in the entire Barolo area. The hill stands out for its predominantly clayey soil with the presence of laminated Sant’Agata marls, as well as a south/southwest exposure and an altitude of about 240 meters above sea level. The vines have an average age of about 65 years, a factor that contributes to defining the personality and depth of the wine.
