## Summary

Single-variety Nebbiolo from the family's vineyard in Corneliano d'Alba, aged about a year in steel and partly in oak barriques. Alcohol 14 to 15% vol depending on vintage.

Red with orange reflections. The mainly sandy soil gives elegance; fine, delicate, persistent aroma. Pleasantly bitterish, velvety, light and full at once.

White and red meats, cured meats and aged cheeses, fonduta with truffles, and important traditional first courses from risotto to lasagne
