From the coveted hillside vineyards of Castiglione Falletto and Monforte d'Alba, Mario Cordero cultivates exceptional terroir, where calcareous-clay soils and optimal sun exposure create perfect conditions for Nebbiolo cultivation. His sites feature exclusively the prized Rosé clone of Nebbiolo, known for its more delicate aromatic profile and finer tannin structure compared to the more common Lampia clone. As a former winemaker at the legendary Vietti estate, Cordero brings decades of expertise to his family operation, where traditional winemaking methods honor the land's historic significance.
This elegant Langhe Nebbiolo showcases the Rosé clone's classic characteristics with remarkable finesse. The wine reveals an intense ruby red color, opening with enchanting aromas of wild raspberry and red currant, intertwined with Nebbiolo's signature rose petal and violet florality. On the palate, delicate notes of white pepper and cinnamon complement the fresh red fruit core, while the careful aging in French tonneaux contributes to remarkably refined tannins that carry through to a persistent finish.
