This wine reminds me of the possibility to dream, to go beyond appearance and to foresee what the future can bring. When I first saw the vineyard it was unrecognisable, abandoned, wild; it had been neglected for year
even decades. But then I saw it through Matteo’s eyes: beautiful, thriving, fruitful and adorned by Nebbiolo’s grapes sparkling in the sunlight. That vineyard was first of all a dream of a man, it was firmly and passionately desired and now it is praised by wine lovers. I feel honoured to have seen it at its very beginning, when I had to use the eyes of my imagination. This wine perfectly matches with aged cheese and I love to drink it at the end of a meal, after dessert. A wonderful last sip that from the palate reaches the heart and guides me in my nostalgic dreams.
