The aromatic profile is noble, characterised by \u003cstrong\u003ebalsamic notes\u003c\/strong\u003e of eucalyptus, red fruits, cedar wood and spices. On the palate, it is airy and powerful, with a fine texture and \u003cstrong\u003erounded tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e leading to a long, fragrant finish, perfect for extraordinary ageing over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from the renowned Cannubi cru, located in the Barolo area. The vineyards, facing south between 230 and 320 metres above sea level, are cultivated using the \u003cstrong\u003emodified Guyot\u003c\/strong\u003e system. The soil originates from ancient sedimentations of the Po Sea and is characterised by \u003cstrong\u003emedium-textured calcareous-clay marl\u003c\/strong\u003e.
