The grapes are grown in the historical Cru vineyard Brunate, which is located in the municipality of La Morra, on the south-facing towards the town of Barolo. The vines are planted at an altitude of 300 to 400 meters above sea level, where they experience good diurnal temperature shifts, which create a long hang time allowing the grapes to gradually build complexity and retain natural acidity. The average age of the vines is 55 years, the low-yielding vines are planted at a density of 4,600 vines per hectare and are trained according to the Guyot trellis system. The soil is calcareous and clayey with the presence of the renowned Marne di Sant’Agata a limestone-rich marl in which the Nebbiolo variety thrives and produces balanced, elegant wines. The vines are hand-harvested in October when the grapes have reached optimal maturity.
