Aged 12 months in American oak hogsheads (37% new)

Compared to the Testamatta that proved more difficult during the blending phase

The cool and mineral-driven medium-bodied flavors possess excellent delineation and plenty of intensity

wild flowers and mint make a strong first impression before the firm 2014 Nebbiolo tannins kick in

Approachable

The flavor profile is slightly finer than that of the more muscular Champans with excellent definition and verve if not quite the same mid palate concentration. There is stunningly good length and faultless balance and overall, this is a combination of finesse, focused power and excellent complexity.
