From one of the famed vineyards located in the commune of Neive, in fact, the same vineyard as Bruno Giacosa's 'Santo Stefano di Neive'.  Aromatics typical of wines from this Neive vineyard; dried cherries, cinnamon, tobacco and rose petals.  This wine is powerful and vibrant on the palate with an intense fruit and savory profile.  Right out of the bottle this wine is highly tannic.  If you can resist, open, let breath for a couple hours.  You will not be sorry!
