The latest addition to the line, first produced in 2006. This wine represents the crowning achievement of a journey over the years, to take on the most important varieties from Langhe. Nebbiolo in Barolo, its maximum expression, is a challenge and an objective for each great Albese producer, and it became a reality for the wine maker with the recent acquistion of a vineyard in Novello. The relatively young age of the vines and the progressive discovery of this relatively unknown cru has brought to light the great potential of this vineyard, which is evident even in its first vintage.
Barolo has great balance and complexity with extremely silky tannins. This pure essence of Nebbiolo is enhanced by extensive aging in large barrels.
ABV: 14.50%
