The wine

Made from Nebbiolo grapes delicately raisined on vines in new fields, where malic acidity is reduced and the grape synthesises specific micro-aromas, Prestigio is our full-bodied red wine, enriched by its soft tannins.

Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red, dense, rich in fruity notes, spicy, with hints of vanilla, refined macerated floral notes; full-bodied, rich in extracts, tannic yet velvety, culminating in harmony, balance and persistence

Serving suggestions

Ideal served with red meats, game and cheeses of substance, like Bitto

The vintage

A memorable year due to a mild and rainy spring that gave rise to a perfect growth cycle, followed by a dry summer that enabled the healthy and excellent ripening of grapes.

Under such circumstances, agronomic interventions and phytosanitary protection implemented in the autumn led to results that surpassed all expectations, culminating in what could be defined as one of the best vintages of the century.

Terrain Composition

Sandy clay, poor in humus and highly permeable. All these factors are favourable for aromas and preservation
