| Origin | Hilly area of the Dolcetto di Dogliani in the municipality of Cigliè (Alta Langa) | 
| Climate | Exposure: south-east. Altitude: 500 - 550 m a.s.l. | 
| Soil composition | The soil in this area is limestone as in Serralunga but in addition has a stony substrate (stone langa) that helps the vine to develop the characteristic minerality, altitude and cooler climate mean that even the smells are more complex. | 
| Plants per hectare | 5500 | 
| Yield per hectare | 50 hl | 
| Harvest | The harvest takes place towards the beginning of October. | 
| Wine making | The fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 16 °C for 40 days and then is cooled to prevent malolactic fermentation. The sugar residues are of 5-6 grams per liter, since the low temperature fermenting yeasts are blocked at this point; the slight residue helps the aromatic expression of Riesling. | 
| Aging | Remains on the lees for 6 months, without batonnages and bottled in May. | 
| Residual sugar | 5.0 gr/L | 
| Allergens | Contains sulphites |
