Inky red fruit, chocolate and savory spice power through with remarkable concentration. The palate shows gorgeous density and weight, built on firm but ripe tannins that demand patience. This is reference-point Barbera from Larigi, requiring 5-7 years to fully integrate but destined for greatness.

Elio Altare is one of the founding figures of the Barolo Boys movement, credited with modernizing Langhe winemaking in the 1980s through shorter macerations and French oak. His estate remains a benchmark for the progressive wing of Piedmont.
