## Summary

The estate's entry-level Barbaresco, made from Nebbiolo grown across their vineyards; the producer notes that even plots within the same subarea give differing characteristics.

## Tasting notes

Ruby red turning garnet red with age. Intense yet delicate bouquet reminiscent of violets, fruit and currant jelly. Dry, smooth, full-bodied and delicately velvety on the palate.

## Food pairings

Ideal with roast meats and feathered game.
