Tasting Notes
Their families were farmers for many generations, like many other families in the Langhe. In 1992, Mauro began to drastically reduce the number of grapes per hectare and started to vinify on his own in his new cantina. He utilized shorter macerations with temperature controlled rotary-fermenters and aging in small oak barrels, and he started to produce, little by little, wines that were more elegant with higher quality grapes.

Scores
93 / 100"French oak, blue flower, underbrush and wild berry aromas escape the glass. On the smooth, full-bodied palate, firm fine-grained tannins frame juicy black cherry, crushed raspberry, espresso and star anise. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Drink 2024–2034. Kerin O’Keefe"
