An Alta Langa DOCG born from the passion of Andrea Colombo and the experience of winemaker Riccardo Cotarella. The secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the Classic Method for approximately 40-50 days in Colombo's cool underground cellars, followed by a minimum 60-month maturation on the lees. Intense, bold, deep, and enveloping elegance, with mineral notes reminiscent of talcum powder and face powder, typical Pinot Noir notes of raspberry, redcurrant, and red spring flowers. Fine and very persistent perlage. Well-balanced between body and freshness, excellent structure, silky and harmonious perlage on the palate, it displays an interesting savory and minerality.
