Rich and enveloping, with waves of dark fruit, tar, rose petals and exotic spice. The tannins are ripe and approachable, giving this single-vineyard Riserva immediate appeal while retaining the structure for long aging. Captures 2017's warmth without losing Barolo's essential character.

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.
