A blend of Nebbiolo and Barbera from the Langhe hills in Italy's Piedmont region. The two varieties ferment and macerate separately for three weeks. After the malolactic fermentation, they are blended and then aged in oak for 12 months. A beautiful violet color atypical of Nebbiolo but reflective of the 2021 vintage where fullness and richness are even pres- ent to the eye. The wine has bold notes of blackberry, cherry, blood orange, and bergamot with a touch of flintiness. Medium-structured with lots of juiciness and harmony on the palate all lead to well-balanced acidity and tannin structure with a long finish.
