Produced in a single vineyard and nurtured like no other on the estate. Luca Ferraris wanted to dedicate this wine to his grandfather Martino “and see that it stands up to years of cellaring. My goal is that this wine should stand with a good Barolo”.
Grapes are hand-harvested and rigorously selected. The juice ferments in large oak barrels and then ages in a mix of old and new oak ‘tonneau’ for 24 – 36 months. The wine is then bottle aged for a further year.
Aromas of pepper and spice, ripe raspberry and cherry on the palate, medium to full bodied with soft tannins. A stimulating acidity reminiscent of a fine red Burgundy with a fully ripe finish.
A wine to be savoured.
