The Wine
Like our Roberto—who did not rest on his laurels—this gentle Nebbiolo requires patience, precision, and persistence. It’s all in the strategy. A whole bunch, of handpicked fruit results in a softer style, announcing boiled lolly, rose petal, and red berry characters. Fresh, youthful, and surprising. Open right now for a feast of succulent Peking duck and hatching well-formed plans.

Winemaking
The Nebbiolo chosen for this wine was selected from a vineyard that naturally produces more floral, rose, and violet notes and medium-styled tannins. The Nebbiolo grapes were crushed and fermented in open-top fermenters for five days before the wine was pressed and stored in old, large barrels, which allowed the wine to retain its natural varietal characteristics.
