Producer Notes
A producer that has experimented with both modern and traditional techniques and has found themselves firmly back in the traditional camp. Back in the mid 1990’s they began ageing some of their wines in small French barrels but gave this up in 2004 as they felt the character of the wine had been lost. All of their Barolo come from the Ravera vineyard in Novello (next to Barolo) but vary in soil and vine age. Their wines offer great value for the quality.
