The \u003cstrong\u003erocky soil\u003c\/strong\u003e plays a fundamental role, giving the wine a distinct mineral character. A \u003cstrong\u003econstant fresh breeze\u003c\/strong\u003e caresses the vines throughout the year, moderating temperatures and promoting the perfect ripening of the Nebbiolo grapes. Thanks to the ideal \u003cstrong\u003esouth and south-west exposure\u003c\/strong\u003e, the vines benefit from optimal sunlight, essential for achieving an intense structure that harmoniously blends with freshness and savouriness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter a careful selection of the bunches, \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place in steel tanks for about fifteen to eighteen days, ensuring optimal extraction of colour and aromas. Maturation continues in \u003cstrong\u003elarge Slavonian oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for around forty months, an essential stage to soften and round out the tannic component. This is followed by a further ten months of bottle ageing.
