The original name for this vineyard is Brinate. In its early years, this Barolo presents aromas of violets, balsamic and small red fruits hints along with pleasant spice aromas such as clove, cinnamon and nutmeg.
As the wine matures, notes of tobacco, rose and licorice come through and, in great vintages, truffle as well.
Fineness and elegance result from the alkalinity and the presence of calcium in the soil.
