## Tasting notes

Colour: bright garnet red, turning pale orange with age. Nose: intense red fruit jam, wild berries and blackcurrant, floral notes of geranium and violet, then intense spice of pepper, withered rose and liquorice. Palate: elegant and balanced, full-bodied; velvety tannins and good acidity make each sip rich and persistent.

## Food pairings

Goes well with traditional Langhe dishes such as fresh-pasta starters with meat and sauces, especially when young, boiled meats, truffle and mushrooms.
