A site-driven Barolo of depth, structure, and measured intensity.

Structured

Complex

Elegant

Ageworthy

A poised and architecturally framed Barolo built for progression in the glass and in bottle.

Nose: Dried rose, red cherry, and crushed raspberry unfold alongside tar, sweet spice, and a subtle balsamic tone.
Palate: Full-bodied yet lifted, with vibrant acidity and firmly structured, finely grained tannins. Layers of red fruit, spice, and earthy nuance develop steadily, maintaining clarity and direction.
Finish: Long and resonant, marked by floral persistence and a refined, drying grip.
Serve: Cellar temperature, never warm. Open it an hour ahead and give it air; too warm and the alcohol takes over.

Classic and deep, built on finesse rather than extraction.

The traditional side of Nadia Curto's Barolo, from the Arborina hill in La Morra.

Vines: 100% Nebbiolo.
Soils: Predominantly calcareous clay, contributing depth and tannic structure.
Farming: Organic (non-certified), dry-farmed, hand harvested.
Cellar: Spontaneous fermentation in steel, a long maceration with manual punch-downs, then large oak casks and time in bottle.
Additions: Minimal sulphur.
