Our Tasting Note: Dramatically different from the Langhe Nebbiolo, this is elegant and refined, with more power and structure behind it. Aromas of richer red cherry rise more easily from the glass, and the palate carries fine grained tannins with little hints of mint and pepper underneath. Beautiful!

Grape: 100% Nebbiolo
Vineyard: Single vineyard in Santa Vittora d'Alba with mixture of sand, silt, and fine clay at 250-270m.
Winemaking: The grapes arrive at the winery where the grapes are fermented wirth 30% whole bunches. Spontaneous fermentation of the must in contact with the skins lasts for about 15-20 days at a controlled temperature. After malolactic fermentation, Roero DOCG Roccapalea is aged for a long period in wood with light toasting to guarantee the final product excellent longevity, structure and aroma.
