The original name for this vineyard is Brinate. This Barolo has aromas of violets, balsamic hints and small red fruits in its youth together with pleasant aromas of spices such as carnation, cinnamon and nutmeg.
When the wine matures, it is the notes of tobacco, rose and licorice that make themselves felt and, in great vintages, also the truffle.
Finesse and elegance come from the alkalinity and the presence of calcium in the soil.

95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, July 2020.
94 Points - Wine Enthusiast, Kerin O'Keefe, September 2020. "Pressed rose, ground clove, star anise and moist earth aromas mingle together in the glass. Elegantly structured and full of flavor, the juicy palate doles out raspberry compote, black cherry and tobacco set against refined tannins. Drink 2023–2031."
94 Points - Wine Spectator, December 2020.
