Sourced from Borgogno's top Barolo vineyard holdings on classic Helvetian limestone marls, this 100% Nebbiolo undergoes spontaneous fermentation with extended maceration (25-30 days) in concrete tanks. Aged 5+ years in large neutral Slavonian oak casks (25-50hl capacity) with rackings, then extended bottle aging before release at 14.5% alcohol, certified organic production emphasizing terroir purity.

Tasting Notes
Attractive floral nose of cherries, rose hips, cinnamon, walnuts, and crushed stones leads to a medium-to-full-bodied palate that's layered and broad. Fine, firm, vibrant tannins support spicy fruit concentration, vivid acidity, and excellent persistence with savory mineral depth.

Awards and Accolades
95/100 James Suckling
