A wine that has truly hit its stride

Many of the vines are over 100 years old and it took him 10 years to organise a Guyot* training system

Grapes: 90% Nebbiolo (known locally as Picotendro)  and 10% of Fumin

the vines were planted in 2002 and 2006

bone dry rose with lovely ripe raspberry and black cherry fruit

just immaculate fruit from high altitude

Mané is the name given to the small hill just below the cellar where Andrea's grandfather planted a hectare of Chardonnay

they are assembled and decanted into used tonneaux* to be aged for 18 months

Regulations stipulate that a Riserva must be aged for another twelve months before release

the flavours lean towards rich citrus and blood orange

made to be a more forward-drinking wine

Grape: Barbera
