Producer:
Grape Variety:
100% Nebbiolo
Tasting Note:
Firm tannin, a lot of almond paste, red fruits, slight cedar top note. Tannin is wide-grained and gently chalky, fine finish, all strawberry and spice. and a sense of prettiness. Doesn’t carry its alcohol quite as confidently as the Paiagallo, but it’s still a charming and very lovely wine.
Vinification:
Giovanni Canonica is a hidden legend in the town of Barolo. He has only 1.5 hectares of vines in the Paiagallo and produces 6,000 bottles of great wine using Biodynamic Viticulture.
