Blend: 50/60% Picotendro (Nebbiolo), with the rest of the blend from Ner d’Ala, Neretto, and Erbaluce (varies from vintage to vintage).

From pergola- and espalier-trained vines in the terraced vineyards with the best exposure. The harvested grapes are allowed to warm under the sun to guarantee rapid fermentation. The wine is unfined and unfiltered.
