The Story
100% Nebbiolo. Medium garnet with ruby highlights and a slightly orange-tinged rim — youthful yet already showing typicity for Nebbiolo. Open-knit and aromatic nose, reflecting the Pora cru's warmer, more generous character: juicy red cherries, wild strawberries, and cranberry. Dried rose, sweet tobacco, and fennel seed. Early hints of leather, earth, and a touch of cocoa. Aromatic and inviting, with a rounded and sun-kissed profile. Medium-bodied with a plush, rounded mouthfeel. Polished and integrated tannins — softer than in some other Barbaresco crus. Bright and supportive acidity, keeping the wine fresh and lifted. Ripe red fruit flavors of plum skin, blood orange, and hints of clove and almond. Pair with slow-cooked duck or pheasant or tagliatelle with wild boar ragu.
