## Summary

A Langhe wine born from the Pio family's wish to bring together Nebbiolo and Pinot Nero in the Langhe terroir, grown on different exposures on family properties.

## Tasting notes

Aromas of redcurrant and fleshy, almost sweet fruit, good tannic persistence, roundness and fragrance but also compactness and seriousness. It can last over time, bringing out the more austere traits of Nebbiolo, the leading variety in the blend.
