Color: intense ruby red with purple and black reflections, tending towards garnet with aging

Bouquet: ample, fresh and fruity, intense, with light notes of vanilla on the finish, cherry and berries, but also notes of underbrush, licorice, and cocoa. Small notes of wildflowers also stand out.

Flavor: soft, warm, vigorous, austere, elegant, improving over time; very fresh, balanced acidity, balanced in the mouth.

Food pairings: It goes perfectly with the cuisine of Roero and Langhe and with very tasty dishes. Excellent with pasta, rice, and soup first courses, braised or grilled red meats and medium-matured cheeses. It is also a perfect aperitif glass with appetizers and cold cuts.
