In the 2021 harvest, an average dry year with below average temperatures, the grapes were fully ripe and had excellent concentration as well as thick skins, rich in aromas and colour. The resulting wines have notable volume, and sweet and enveloping tannins like never before. Abundant snowfall and low temperatures led to an unusually severe,rainy winter, followed by a dry spring. Temperatures picked up in mid-March but unfortunately, the cold returned in early April with icy winds. Some vineyards lower in altitude were affected by frost and recorded losses between 30% and 5%. The summer rolled out with hot and dried days alternating with short and frequent gusts of winds that had the effect of  lowering the temperatures. Powdery mildew became a real threat in Barbaresco in July and required a lot of attention and focus from our team. After an overall dry season, a redeeming rainfall came in the end of August, refreshing the Barbaresco region. Nebbiolo ripened slowly, helped by a rainfall on September 17 along with a drop in temperatures and a dense fog. The harvest kicked off in Barbaresco on September 21. This relatively dry and cold vintage leaded to a late harvest and paid off with high quality grapes, characterized by smaller berries.

Rich ruby red.

Sweet on the nose, floral, with hints of red fruit, violet, black cherry, and a salty touch that continues on the palate.

In the mouth it is juicy and delicate, with not too much volume. Of the three single vineyard’s Barbaresco, it is the most floral and delicate, with a citrus note on the finish.

Fermentation, maceration and ageing in oak for 24 months.
