A magnificent single-vineyard Piedmontese red wine sourced from the historic Perno cru in Monforte d'Alba. Displaying wonderful maturity, it reveals deep, layered notes of dried red currants, licorice, underbrush, and crushed iron-like minerals framed by a powerful, structured, and muscular tannin profile.
Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with slow-braised beef cheeks, roasted game birds, rich wild mushroom and black truffle pasta, or sharply aged hard cheeses.
93 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Leather, licorice and balsamic aromas slowly take shape in the glass. Full bodied and taut, this delivers dried black cherry, mature raspberry, star anise and clove set against fresh acidity and firm, refined tannins. Drink 2023–2043.
93 Points - James Suckling
This delivers a rich and very intense set of blue-fruit aromas with blackcurrants, coal smoke and violets, leading to a compact, succulent palate with long, fine tannins. Good freshness here. Drink or hold.
93 Points - Wine Spectator
Vibrant and expressive, this red features cherry, strawberry, floral and tobacco aromas and flavors allied to an elegant frame. Harmonious, very accessible and long. Better to wait a few years. Best from 2019 through 2035. 1,100 cases made, 850 cases imported.
