• Story:
  This Barolo is Stefano's successful attempt to combine the power of Barolo, the olfactory expressiveness of Nebbiolo from Valtellina, and the Burgundian expertise in barrel aging. The grapes come from the Roncaglie Vineyard, located in the Santa Maria hamlet in La Morra, which is owned by his mother. The soil of Roncaglie is renowned for imparting elegance to the wine. This Barolo is vinified in accordance with his father's style, with some adjustments made to enhance roundness and approachability. The label, designed by Stefano, is simple, honest, and minimalist—reflecting both the wine and its character.
  

Forget the feud between modernists and traditionalists. It is time to focus on NEBBIOLO.
