Brunate is a splendid location lying on the hillside of the majestic Barolo-La Morra amphitheatre, bordering Cerequio, with a west, south-west exposure; the average altitude is 300 metres a.s.l., and the soil is composed mainly of calcareous marl of Tortonian origin, wherein are to be found many microelements, foremost among which manganese and iron.

Though bordering on Cerequio, it is surprising how different are its structural and olfactory features: this is the most evident demonstration of the profound influence the composition of the soil and its microelements have on the typology of wine and how much said features change, even between neighbouring microzones. .

Characteristics of the cru: ample and complex bouquet, highly classical, with pleasant hints of ribes, liquorice, dog-rose, green pepper. A truly harmonious, considerably long-lasting, silky taste.

Life cycle: it reaches its peak after 4 years, and continues developing well for up to 10-12 years.
