  One of the top tastings of the trip. Incredible history, vineyard sites, knowledge- all patiently explained to a recent convert (me) of how damn good excellent Piedmont wines can be. With no investor the family strives to do what’s best- for each vineyard site and corresponding wine every vintage. If it’s an incredible bountiful vintage they may make 8,000 bottles however in a poor vintage they may declassify, sell bulk juice or by producing only the best possible, produce 2,000 (callout- illustrative purposes only and not suggesting other producers may not follow same). Highly recommended.
  
  Beautiful structure, good length, red fruits, dark cherry, minerality, long finish
