Elegant aromatics of wild cherry and cedar lift from the glass with hints of orange peel and dried herbs. Medium-bodied with graceful tannins that provide structure without weight. The finish shows classic Nebbiolo character. Floral and mineral-driven with lingering spice.

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.
