Vineyard Info
"The Nebbiolo vineyard called “Bricco” is located on top of the hill behind the farmhouse, in the south-west exposures. Here the vines need to deepen their roots to rich the substances they need from the soil, made up of marl and very rich in carbonates and mineral components, able to give to wine powerful structures, tannins and great ageing potential. That’s why this vineyard is historically dedicated to the production of our Barolo Riserva"
