Plozza
IGT
For the realization of the Plozza, an oenological delicacy produced exclusively in the best vintages, are vinified bunches of Nebbiolo matured on almost secular plants that before pressing - as already happens for the Sforzato - are left to dry in boxes for a period of three months. Of fundamental importance is the refinement, which lasts for twenty-four months in virgin wood, ten of which in a first new barrique and fourteen in a second new one.
​
We love to define this double decanting in new wood as the "200% barrique method", aware of the fact that such a maturation is only effective if the grapes used are of the highest quality, with an intensity of the fruit that perfectly balances with the delicacy of the toasting aromas.
​
The fine olfactory panorama is wide and intense, with a dominance of withered violet and ripe fruits that soon turn to tobacco scents and leather nuances. The taste is portentous, invigorated by a persistent acid-tannic finish. Proposed in a luxurious bottle with an antique brass label, the Plozza - an authentic meditation wine - is kept inside a small box in fine wood.
