A very old style of Barolo winemaking, this is 100% Nebbiolo that is pressed off when the fermentation is nearly done and then poured over the skins of Barbera left from that wine’s pressing. After a couple of hours, the now dry wine goes back on the Nebbiolo skins and macerates for 60 days while malolactic fermentation finishes before aging in large oak cask for a year.  The results are a wine full of dark cherry fruit, a touch of rose petal, a juicy feel, and lovely, refined, supple tannins. The wine will hold and improve for a half-dozen years and gain more Barolo character if you want to wait. But it’s built to enjoy now with all kinds of rich ragus and mushroom dishes.

"This is fragrant and fruity with ripe cherries, strawberries, blood oranges and sweet spices. Medium- to full-bodied. Chalky and textured with powdery tannins. Velvety finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now or hold."
