The Story
Sourced from the renowned La Serra cru in Barolo, this elegant Nebbiolo reveals aromas of bright red berries, rose petals, crushed stones, dried leaves, and grilled mushrooms. Full-bodied and beautifully structured, it combines concentrated fruit with polished tannins, vibrant acidity, and impressive mineral complexity. Refined and age-worthy, it delivers a long and harmonious finish characteristic of this celebrated vineyard.
Food Pairing: Pairs best with braised beef, truffle risotto, osso buco, wild boar ragù, and aged Parmigiano Reggiano.
94 Points - James Suckling
A potent but compact mix of bright red berries and complex mineral and sous-bois notes on the nose, such as grilled mushrooms, dried leaves and crushed stones. Full-bodied with an intense core of fruity and savory flavor, riding lightly firm, nicely polished tannins. Very classy and tempting even now, but give it another year.
92 Points - Wine Spectator
An elegant red, with leather, vanilla and toasty oak aromas enveloping flavors of cherry and raspberry. Though silky and fluid, the tannins put a grip on the finish, shutting it down for now. Shows fine balance overall. Best from 2025 through 2040. 580 cases made, 150 cases imported.
89 Points - Wine Enthusiast
This opens with aromas of dark-skinned fruit, underbrush and cedar while the medium-bodied palate offers blackberry jam, mocha and licorice. Close-grained tannins provide support. Drink 2024–2030.
