Producer’s notes
Vietti describes an intense ruby red colour with garnet hues; notes of hay, cut grass, tobacco, white pepper and wild mint; and a robust palate with the stark, deep tannins of Serralunga and a mineral, persistent finish. The plot is an amphitheatre facing southwest at 260 to 390 metres, on soil rich in limestone and clay, with vines averaging 42 years.
