THE WINE

It represents the company's flagship and clearly expresses its style,

in the constant search for elegance and purity. It comes from grapes harvested

in the best plots of the homonymous Cru Rizzi. Since it is

a fairly large vineyard area, it is normal to find within

discrete variations in exposure and altitude, as well as obvious

pedological differences. The result is a Barbaresco with classic traits

in which the freshness of the fruit, the intensity of the

undergrowth, immediacy and longevity coexist.

Serving temperature: 16°C.

WINEMAKING

Harvest:

by hand in crates, in the first ten days of October (with possible

variations depending on the seasonal climate trend).

Fermentation and maceration:

at a controlled temperature in steel tanks without exceeding 30°C,

for a duration of approximately 3-4 weeks. At the end of the

primary fermentation, malolactic fermentation follows, which

usually ends in approximately a month.

Aging:

in large Slavonian oak barrels for about 12 months, then in concrete tanks for another 6-9 months and then in the bottle before being

released for sale.
