Tasting note

Classic Nebbiolo colour, garnet with deep brick red hue. On the nose the wine displays typical Nebbiolo characters of rose petal and violets with subtle star anise notes keeping your attention. The palate is deep, structured and powerful, all elements Pizzini pride themselves on when working with this special variety. Rich red fruits, spiced plums and red liquorice lead us to solid earthy tannins and a remarkably bright and generous finish.
