Elegant restraint defines this youthful Nebbiolo, where bright cherry and wild herbs dance with mineral precision. The new oak integration is seamless, adding subtle vanilla threads without overwhelming the wine's inherent grace. Fine-grained tannins provide structure while maintaining approachability. Give it until 2026 to reach full harmony.

Elio Altare

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.
