Description

The 2020 is comprised of 35% fruit from La Morra, from Cascina Fontana’s vineyard in Giachini. The lion’s share of the grapes, however, hails from the prized plots in Castiglione Falletto - a combination of Valletti and Villero cru. After fermentation, the wine spends two years in large Slavonian oak, before a year in cement and a further six months’ bottle ageing prior to release. The 2020 shows great balance, with a firm but elegant structure. The palate is wonderfully detailed with blackcurrant and earthy, cherry tones before poised sanguinello and vibrant acidity.

Drink 2025 – 2040
