Description
Style of Langa. Between the Dolcetto vine and the Langa hills there is a pact that has lasted for centuries. Not only because the vine was born on these hills to the right of the Tanaro river. Above all, because of the strong bond that has been woven over time between this vine and its wine and the people who live in these areas. If it is customary to look at the hills and trace on their ridges the rows of Dolcetto well characterised in the various seasons of the year, it is equally customary to look at the tables of these houses and find the youthful, fragrant colours and scents of Dolcetto d'Alba in your glasses. Immediate fragrance. As many as eleven are the Dolcetto vineyards that we cultivate on the highest hills of Barolo: they are "white lands", with a strong limestone imprint, with challenging locations and altitudes that often exceed 350-400 metres above sea level. Year after year, we work these vineyards with passion and in the heart of September we harvest their ripe grapes. After separate vinification, we select the best batches to create a blend wine according to Langa tradition. The bottle crowns the quality and gives a young, fragrant wine that gladdens the everyday and festive table with equal authority.
