Hundred per cent Dolcetto grapes hand picked in Gaggero and Vicario vineyards planted between 1970 and 2000 gives life to this Monferrato DOC Dolcetto: "Aur-oura". The vinification it's done in stainless steel tank, using native yeasts only and extended (2-3 weeks) maceration. Than for 11 months at least aging is done in a mix of stainless steel tanks and french oak casks, tonneaux and barriques, mainly not new.
Wine of extreme beauty. Fun to place on the table even alongside fish preparations, excellent in front of the fire with a skewer of grilled meat. Decisive and clean aromatic department, centered and gentle fruit and fluid sensation that lets out the expression of terroir.
