Elio Altare Unoperuno

Unoperuno is Elio Altare's Barolo project in which every berry is separated from the bunch by hand, made in about 1,200 bottles from a blend of grapes across all the estate's vineyards.

Tasting notes

Light ruby red with garnet reflections. Fruity and floral notes. Delicate and elegant, with a finish of rose and flowers.
