A wine that is unique in its kind: the vines in this vineyard are the product of a mass selection carried out in the other two Dolcetto vineyards. After fermenting it in steel, we decided to have this wine spend about 10 months, to make it even more intense and solid. The palate is of the highest level, capable of sustaining any gastronomic pairing with elegance and pleasantness.
