Producer Notes
A well-established family estate in Piedmont that produces a wide range of wines, is probably best known for its Barolos. The vineyards stretch across the region with several plots located in the top Barolo crus; the fruit from Monvigliero and Gramolere are made into single vineyard wines in good years. Their blended Barolo made from fruit grown on a variety of plots is a well-made, vibrant wine that ages well and is usually good value.
