Aged and ready for you to enjoy now. Our La Volpe is a softer style Nebbiolo, designed to drink in its youth or after short term cellaring. The enticing nose has rose petal, violet and red berry characters. The palate is smooth and elegant with tar, raspberries and star anise. The finish is long, with hints of dark chocolate and elegant tannins

Winemaking

The Nebbiolo chosen for this wine was selected from a vineyard that naturally produces more floral, rose and violet notes and medium styled tannins. The Nebbiolo grapes were crushed and fermented in open-top fermenters for five days before the wine was press and stored in old, large barrels, which allowed the wine to retain its natural varietal characteristics.
