Prünent Vigna Fornace
By Cantine Garrone, Alto Piemonte, Piemonte, Italy
A single-vineyard Prünent from the historic La Fornace vineyard in Crevoladossola, farmed by the estate since 2011; the vineyard appears in mid-19th-century travellers' postcards alongside the Napoleonic bridge.
Tasting notes
Cool air currents from the nearby valleys are said to give this Nebbiolo an unrepeatable character.
