100% Nebbiolo
This wine is fermented on wild yeasts and malolactic bacteria in a closed stainless steel tank with daily pumpovers. This is the only wine that we allow to macerate for a full thirty days. After which it is pressed directly to brand new French oak 132 gallon puncheons and this is where it rests for a full 36 months, and then a minimum one year in bottle. This is not a wine where youthful vibrant fruit leaps from the glass and assaults you. No, it is restrained and thoughtful; thought provoking perhaps. A gentleman's club of days pat, it is leatherand whispy cigar smoke. Fruit is bright and present, red currant cloaked in dark chocolate. The structureis so complete and intertwined it is elegant. This is not a wine for me to write about it is one that inspires one to cook, better still, call an Italian friend and have them cook; you'll bring the Bollo!! Sante!!
