The Story
100% Nebbiolo, this investment-grade bottling offers a complex and evolving profile. On the nose, it presents aromas of red plums, blood orange, and ferrous notes, complemented by hints of fresh compost, sweet dark fruits, and a touch of stony-citrus acidity. The palate is full-bodied with a lush, enveloping texture, revealing layered flavors of red berries, iron, wild game, tobacco leaf, incense, white pepper, and delicate dried florals. Rich tart cherries, under-ripe strawberries, and an endless finish necessitate another sip... The tannins are firm consistent with this remarkable wine's potential for aging. The 'Monvigliero' vineyard is situated on the highest hill in Verduno, a commune in the Barolo region. This elevation provides optimal exposure and drainage, contributing to the unique characteristics of the wine. The wine undergoes maturation in wood for 36 months, allowing it to express its best qualities over time. Pair with roasted mushrooms, wild boar ragu, or wine-soaked roast beef.
