Tasting Notes: Made from 100% Dolcetto grapes, harvested by hand in small red baskets. They reproduce the old method of foot pressing, only half of the grapes are pressed, the other part is only destemmed, leaving the grapes intact. This allows the winemaker to rediscover the fragrance of ancient flavors, with a less aggressive tannin and therefore more approachable early on. The wine is obtained through spontaneous fermentation and using only indigenous yeasts, not clarified and unfiltered, aged in large cement vats.

Tasting Notes: La Favorita is an old native vine of Langa and Roero, which is well suited to poor soils, typically sandy. The DNA of the grape vine is the same as that of Vermentino from Sardinia and Liguria, which is why it is thought that the grape has a common origin and was spread thanks to the Savoy family. Straw yellow wine, the bouquet is fruity and floral: hay, fresh flowers and banana; on the palate it is fresh and soft, with good balance. Try it as an aperitif, this is an easy drinking delicious wine.

Spicy notes predominate over ripe red fruits, a note of freshly ground coffee creeps in, ripe red apples. Variegated! Dry mouth, medium body, higher acids, tannin grip is very boldly set and can also flirt with some red wines. It is also spicy in the mouth, and above all, the wine has an abundance of structure. Medium-bodied, with a surprisingly moderate alcohol level depending on the variety, the origin and also the (strong) style of the house, which, however, really calms down. At the moment, the tannins are a little rough, but the wine can travel nicely into the future.
