## Summary

Barbaresco from the family's grapes in Neive, aged a long period in large oak and several months in bottle before release.

## Tasting notes

Colour: ruby red with garnet reflections. Nose: intense red fruit jam, wild berries and blackcurrant, floral notes of geranium and violet, then intense spice of pepper, nutmeg and liquorice. Palate: elegant and structured, with intense, velvety tannins at the close. Very persistent and satisfying.

## Food pairings

Perfect with fatty, savoury dishes, Piedmontese cheeses and cured meats. Suited to braised meat, boiled meats and game, and to very rich first courses, especially when young.
