Traditional-style Barbaresco is grown on the vineyards that surround the winery, and is aged – as in the past – only in big casks. It represents the elegance of Barbaresco at its very best, without flaunting the muscle of Nebbiolo. 

Color: garnet red; nose: intense, with powerful fruit, dried flowers and underbrush; taste: dry, smooth and rounded, ending in a warm finish with nicely-balanced tannins.
