Brother and sister Enrico, an oenology graduate from Turin University, and Jole Dellapiana are now running their family's estate just outside Treiso, just along the road from Enrico Nada and Grasso Fratelli. Their father, Ernesto, established the estate in 1974 after he made a decision to quit his paper-making business to immerse himself in the land of the Langhe. There are now 90 acres, making it one of the largest wine estates in the whole of the Barbaresco region.

Cherry, raspberry, almond, aniseed, a crushed rock thing too. It’s medium-bodied, savoury and tight, with firm stony tannin, tobacco. fine ‘minerally’ acidity, kind of bony, though no shortage of depth or flavour, some liquorice richness and spice on a finish of excellent length. It’s a wonderful expression of this vineyard. Yes! Date: July 2023; Alcohol: 14.5%; Price: $130; Closure: Cork; Drink: 2023-2035+; Rated: 95 Points; Gary Walsh; The Wine Front
