Description: The Oddero family have been active in the Barolo wine trade since the 1800's. Luigi and his brother Giacomo co-owned the Oddero estate until 2006, when insurmountable tensions drove them apart, and the family holdings were divided roughly equally between the two. Luigi Oddero passed away in 2010, therefore his wife Lena hired a man named Dante Scaglioni—a local winemaker who had worked for 25 years at the for the legendary Bruno Giacosa winery. It is through Dante’s guidance that the estate’s wine have reached new heights of quality and complexity. The wine display a light ruby-red color. Floral and red fruit aromas typical of the Nebbiolo varietal. Dry and savoury on the palate with notes of fruit, tar and dried flowers. Excellent structure, great balance, and long aromatic finish.
