Tasting Notes: Brick red in colour, this is a rich and powerful wine that's velvety on the palate with a distinct bouquet of roses, violets and tar combined with dried fruit. Three years ageing in oak followed by a further period in bottle has softened the tannins and allowed the wine to develop into a truly exquisite red.

Antonio Sperone began making wine in 1911 but the estate is now led by Francesca and Andrea Sperone (the 94th generation) where they combine rural tradition with modern technology. They produce quality Piedmont classics such as Gavi as well as internationally awarded reds, Barolo and Barbera d’Asti superiore.
