Description
WINEMAKER: Alessandro Salvano
REGION: Piedmont, IT
VARIETY: Nebbiolo
VITICULTURE: Organic
100% nebbiolo, 100% whole bunch pressed. Charming perfume of licorice, clove and violets entices. In the mouth it's fine-boned and filigreed, but not without hallmark nebbiolo tannin, albeit approachable in its youth. Best enjoyed alongside something grilled, be it vegetable or animal, to be fully enjoyed.
Alessandro was born into the vinous world with both of his grandparents being winemakers. After finishing his studies at the Enologica School in Alba, he went to work at numerous addresses in Barolo and Barbaresco. After travel abroad he returned to Italy in May 2017 and commenced working at the iconic ‘Borgogno’ in Barolo where he would work for three years.
In 2019 Alessandro begun making his own wine, purchasing some fruit from his uncle’s vineyard in Montelupo Albese, the very unprestigious ‘outside the Barolo zone’ region to the East of Serralunga. The farming here is undertaken by hand and no synthetic herbicides or pesticides are used. Alessandro has now moved his own tanks and barrels into the winery.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
