BAROLO SOTTOCASTELLO DI NOVELLO
The latest addition to the line, first produced in 2006. This wine represents the crowning achievement of a journey that has brought me, over the years, to take on the most important varietals of the Langhe. Nebbiolo in Barolo, its maximum expression, is a challenge and an objective for each great Albese producer, and it became a reality for us with the recent acquistion of a vineyard in Novello. The relatively young age of the vines and the progressive discovery of this relatively unknown cru has brought to light the great potential of this vineyard, which is evident even in its first vintage

Characteristics
This Barolo is a rather rich ruby red with orange reflections. The nose expresses balsamic and spice characteristics with clear hints of forest floor and menthol and ethereal touches of chocolate and tobacco. Elegant and silky in the mouth with a rich, dense structure that persists to the long, harmonious finish
