The word benchmark gets bandied around a lot these days, but this is a Nebbiolo that clearly justifies that term. It comes from declassified, mostly young vine fruit from the great Castiglione Falletto Crus of Bricco Boschis, Codana and Pernanno, so it is a wine that could legitimately be labelled as Barolo.
Cropped at a yield of around 38 hl/ha, the grapes were fully de-stemmed and fermentation occurred with indigenous yeasts. Malolactic fermentation was in cement tanks during the spring following harvest and the wine was then aged for 18 months in Slavonian oak botti. It was bottled unfiltered.
