Only indigenous yeasts and traditional fermenting techniques are used. These are clean, polished and ethereal wines of great elegance that are guaranteed to offer years of sublime drinking while being terrific collector’s items.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard 'Cicala' is about 45-50 years old and its vines are replanted from time to time. The main variety of Nebbiolo is Lampia and its rootstock is Rupestris du Lot. Harvest is done manually, with grapes selected in the vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 Points - Wine Spectator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePure and supple in texture, boasting aromas and flavors of rose, cherry, raspberry, vanilla and toasty oak, this red is pretty seamless already, with refined tannins that emerge on the finish, needing time to absorb the oak.
