Description

This Nebbiolo is grown on the sunny and steep vineyards of the Roero region – in between the left bank of the Tanaro river and some areas in the nearby Langhe region – where full-bodied and fruity wines are produced. The loose and sandy soil is rich in minerals and gives to the wine heady perfumes and rich sensations which linger the mouth.
