Claudio Mariotto sources the grapes for this wine from a tiny parcel of vines in Vho, a hill that overlooks Tortona. It's an otherworldly little town, untouched by time and the absolute picture of idyllic wine country. The wine itself is similarly charming, oozing fragrant lemon and toasted almond notes from the glass. The palate is brisk, a beam of sunshine with a cool breeze, though finishes long and sultry.
