"Crafted from Nebbiolo grown at 450 m in the Arenarie di Diano d’Alba soils of the historic Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba, this Barolo shows remarkable tension and depth. The nose opens with rose petals, dried violet, wild strawberry, red currant, and a hint of blood orange zest, layered with licorice, fennel seed, and subtle minty alpine notes. On the palate, it is precise and elegant yet firmly structured, with fine-grained tannins, bright red-cherry fruit, savory tobacco, crushed stone minerality, and a lingering note of sweet spice from large cask aging. The long, taut and mineral-driven finish reflects the altitude and late October harvest, promising graceful evolution over the next two decades." —winemaker
