The grapes come from Vigna Cicala in Bussia near Monforte d’Alba; the vines are on average around 70 years old, with some planted as early as 1938. The iron- and phosphorus-rich soils give the wine structure, austerity and dense power. After around 30 days of skin contact, it matures for 28 months in large oak casks. The aromatic profile shows ripe raspberries, wild berries, violets, liquorice and lightly smoky, balsamic notes. The style is full-bodied, mineral and tannic, with fresh acidity and a long, firm finish.
