## Summary

First produced in 2019, 40 years after the winery's first Barbaresco, this single-vineyard wine comes from the Pajorè farmhouse plot in Treiso, named after the Peirolero family who once farmed it.

## Tasting notes

Colour: intense ruby red with garnet-shaded nuances. Nose: intense and complex, with floral notes of rose and slightly spicy, vinous scents, balsamic and elegant. Taste: a fruity entry becoming dry and characteristically tannic, well-structured with a long, rewarding finish.

## Food pairings

Game, aged cheeses; also good with grilled meat
