The harvest, which took place between late September and early October, allowed for healthy and concentrated grapes. This vintage's \"Michet\" Nebbiolo stands out for its balance between aromatic intensity and tannic finesse, qualities that emerge even in its early years in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking and aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are vinified with controlled temperature fermentation to preserve the most delicate aromas of the grape variety. \u003cstrong\u003eMaceration on the skins\u003c\/strong\u003e (i.e., the contact of the must with the skins to extract color and tannins) lasts about 8 days. After fermentation, the wine ages in wood for the time necessary to develop elegance and softness, without ever masking the varietal character of Nebbiolo.
