Soil type: The Nebbiolo grapes for Barolo Riserva are selected from the highest part of the Arnulfo Estate, the "Bricco" vineyard. Here, sun exposure is optimal, as is wind exposure, which prevents moisture from accumulating on the vine, inhibiting the growth of fungi and mold. The soil here is particularly lean, with a good presence of mineral salts. Exposure: South Tasting profile: Garnet red with orange highlights. An intense yet complex wine that expresses particularly evolved tertiary aromas. On the palate, tannins are present but fine, with a long finish that expresses notes of black pepper, a hint of vanilla, and rhubarb. Pairing: Roasted and boiled meats, and mature and aged cheeses. The wine ages for 18 months in 5,000-liter Slavonian oak barrels, followed by bottle aging.
