Summary:
Very nice location on the hill overlooking the surrounding valleys. Very interesting visit with comprehensive explanations and detailed answers to the questions asked. Small but impactful cellar and very "real". We chose the tasting of the 3 Barolo Vecchie Vintages (2 hours plentiful) and it was very satisfying with 3 vintages (2013, 2014 and 2015), an explanation for each glass drunk and an excellent platter of cold cuts and cheeses and hazelnuts (perfect for Barolo). We will return.
