In the cellar: Lu comes from a selection of their best grappoli from their cru “La Serra” and “Fossati,” conducted towards the end of harvest. It sees a maceration of around thirty days before being elevated two years in foudre, followed by six to twelve months in glass-lined cement vats before resting in bottle for an additional year before release.
Farming method: Biodynamic
Tasting notes: The aromas of ‘Lu’ is multi-faceted and full of ripe red fruit, rosehip, eucalyptus, rosemary, and sweet spices, unfolding into a harmonious, complex palate that only Nebbiolo could produce. Elegant, lingering, and quite drinkable now.
