5 RODDI Comune del Barolo LANGHE DOC ARNEIS Arneis is our white native grape dating back to 1500 in the Roero area but its modern winemaking history started in the 70s. I began its production in 2009 as my first experience in the white wine production. The grape s distinctive qualities are brought up in the glass thanks to the prefermentation cold maceration, while a slow fermentation develops its longevity and character. Grape variety 100% uva Arneis. Vineyard location grapes come from a vineyard in Alba Grape harvest mid-september Vinification the hand-picked grapes are collected in small baskets, then gently de-stemmed, crushed and chilled. They are submitted to a 48 hour cold maceration, when the contact between the skins and the must allows it to enhance its aromas, colour and sapidity. At the end of the maceration process the must is separated from the skins and carries out a low temperature fermentation Ageing process Arneis is kept in stainless steel tanks on its fine lees along 5 months from alcoholic fermentation, with no addition of sulphites. It is bottled in spring with the utmost care, so as to preserve its freshness and longevity. The amount of sulphites in a bottle is lower than 90mg/L, well below the legal limit of 200mg/L. Organoleptic properties the color is intense straw yellow with golden highlights. Aromas of pear, yellow peach and grapefruit combine with notes of honey and saffron during the aging process. On the palate it is rich and fruity, sapid (this being the main feature of Arneis), with mineral hints and a long lasting aftertaste. Pairings excellent as an aperitif, it is best served with row seafood and fish starters, vegetables, cheeses and lean meat. Ideal with spring first courses with vegetables and tomato or with main courses based on lean meat and fish, its gastronomic pairings have no limits. Serving temperature between 11º and 13ºC.

6 RODDI Comune del Barolo BARBERA DALBA DOC Barbera used to be regarded as a humble wine in the North of Italy but today, thanks to cluster thinning and the abolition of chemical fertilizers, it has become a symbol of Piedmont all over the world. The fruity notes and structure stemming from the sandy marls are brought up in the glass. The aging takes place for 6 months in oak barriques and for further 8 months in stainless steel tanks. Grape variety 100% uva Barbera. Vineyard location it is located in località Rivoli in Alba, close to the Rocche di Diano, at an altitude of 250m a.s.l. facing south. The soil is rich in sand and lime, half the vines are 10 years old and the remaining 40 years old Grape harvest between 20th September and 10th October. This variety is very sensitive to the weather conditions, it best suits hot and dry vintages as well as calcareous and well exposed soils. Vinification the hand-picked grapes are collected in small baskets, then gently de-stemmed and crushed. In particularly cold and rainy vintages the volume of the berry increases due to excessive water absorption from the roots, so we drain the excess water. The wine undergoes fermentation and maceration evolving into a structured and balanced product thanks to the delestage technique. After the drawing off malolactic fermentation takes place by means of natural lactic bacteria in the grapes. Ageing process not very rich in tannins, particularly suitable to ageing in wood. Ageing begins in old barriques for 6 months so as to limit the toasted and vanilla notes and emphasize the fruity aromas. It is then moved to stainless steel tanks for other 6-8 months and then bottled with the utmost care. Organoleptic properties deep ruby red, nose brimming with blackberry and hints of spices. Rich and elegant on the palate, its pulpy fruit reminding of the pleasant nose blending with acidity and carrying through to its lingering finish. Pairings perfect with cold cuts, cheeses, rich starters and pasta dishes but also ideal with barbecues Serving temperature excellent up to 7-8- years after harvesting, usually served between 18º and 20ºC.

7 RODDI Comune del Barolo BARBERA DALBA DOC SUPERIORE Campii Raudii Campi Raudii is named after a Roman battle (101 AC) whose name has always fascinated me and can easily be referred to an outstanding wine. This long lasting wine comes from a single vineyard in Bricco Rivoli. Its winemaking process requires a slow skin maceration together with a long ageing process in wood and bottle. Its limited production amounts to 3000 bottles a year. Grape variety 100% uva Barbera. Vineyard location the vineyard is located at the top of Bricco Rivoli in Alba, pretty close to the Rocche di Diano. With an elevation of 320m a.s.l. and a calcareous marl soil, the vines were planted in 2001 Grape harvest between 20th September and 5th October, depending on the weather conditions. Every year kg of Barbera grapes are picked. Vinification the hand-picked grapes are de-stemmed and crushed. In particularly cold and rainy vintages the volume of the berry increases due to excessive water absorption from the roots, so we drain the excess water. Fermentation and maceration start naturally due to the presence of the native yeasts extracted from the vineyard. This natural process lasts two weeks, during which we perform gentle pumping over and delestage Ageing process after malolactic fermentation the wine is racked into 40% old barriques, 30% one year old barriques and 30% two year old barriques, where it remains for months before bottling. Organoleptic properties deep ruby red with garnet highlights, the bouquet is intense with blackberry overtones and hints of toasted coffee,tobacco, ink and spices. It starts out in the palate providing a warm and rich feeling and ends with a pleasantly tannic flavor due to the acidity and the ageing in oak barriques. Pairings ideal with barbecues and big red meat dishes or game. Perfect for the savoury pairings with mature hard or soft cheeses and blue cheese thanks to its long finish.

8 RODDI Comune del Barolo DOLCETTO DALBA DOC SUPERIORE Buschet The Buschet vineyard is located in Rodello at 500m of altitude, with fresh summer days and warm nights. The south-west exposure and the over 40 year old vines bring the grapes to a complete and gradual maturation. Here the grapes are picked late, when tannins are ready to make a long-living wine. I try to best emphasize the rustic character of this wine in the cellar with a long maceration and a slow aging process in wood. Grape variety 100% uva Dolcetto. Vineyard location the Buschet vineyard is located in Rodello, località Cagnassi at an altitude of 500m a.s.l., facing west and is more than 40 years old. Grape harvest between the 20th and 30th September Vinification the Buschet vineyard grapes, characterized by small berries rich in polyphenols, are hand-picked and collected in baskets. They are then gently de-stemmed and crushed and moved to a stainless steel tank where maceration starts, together with alcoholic fermentation. After a few days manual pigeage and frequent pumping over optimize the extraction that continues until the drawing off of the wine. Ageing process after days from the end of alcoholic fermentation the wine is aged in the best old barriques. Despite being a wine usually drunk young, this type of Dolcetto is rich in structure, tannins and acidity, thus requiring a longer aging process in wood. Organoleptic properties intense ruby red, with cherry, almond and ink to the nose. A caressing warm wine with a long aftertaste, its tannins ensuring longevity Pairings A wine suited to all courses, excellent with pasta dishes, meat, medium aged cheeses.

I respect this variety, suitable for the production of full bodied long living wines. Nebbiolo ages 18 months in wood and one year in bottle. I like to call it Barolo s younger brother. Grape variety 100% uva Nebbiolo. Vineyard location it is located in località Rivoli in Alba, just outside the Barolo production area. The vineyard, with an elevation of 300m a.s.l. facing south-west has a marly soil with prevailing sand and loams. The vines were planted in Grape harvest between 28 September and 15 October, Nebbiolo grapes are the latest to reach maturation, so we take into account the late tannins ripeness levels. Vinification the grapes have to undergo a soft de-stemming and crushing process due to their fragile stems. Maceration and fermentation begin slowly to maintain aromas and colours; fermentation temperatures are lower than the ones used in the red vinification. After days, when the sugar has been turned into alcohol, drawing off is followed by malolactic fermentation.

20 Le Nicchie Nizza DOCG GRAPE VARIETY 100% Barbera only from the best vineyards of Nizza area THE WINE The wine that embodies all our ambitions. Nizza DOCG, the finest expression of our terroir, is grown only in the finest Barbera vineyards. The production regulations for this wine are very strict indeed. Nizza DOCG can be made in Nizza and 17 neighbouring municipalities; only there, and only in the vineyards that enjoy the best exposure, with extremely limited yields, are the grapes used to make this wine grown. And only from the second year after harvesting and after spending a compulsory length of time ageing in wood and then in the bottle, can that wine be released for sale. Ruby red with violet highlights, our Le Nicchie has an intense, complex bouquet featuring red berries with sweet notes of vanilla and coffee. It has a full, warm palate, with scents of liquorice and balanced tannins. Important structure and persistent finish. PAIRING This wine s structure allows the most ambitious pairings; Le Nicchie can be reserved for wheels of wellmatured cheese or more prestigious steaks, such as Fassona or a nice juicy T-Bone, or delicious braised Bue Grasso (fattened ox meat).

21 La Gena Barbera d Asti DOCG GRAPE VARIETY 100% Barbera THE WINE This is our first Barbera, which we have been making since We tiptoed into a brand-new sector with great enthusiasm but also with a particular reverence towards winemakers with far greater expertise. We felt genati, as we say here in Piedmont. And while it s an expression that s almost impossible to translate, Gena describes the embarrassment we felt at the time. This is a bright ruby red wine, with an intense, fruity bouquet. Full-bodied and persistent, it is the product of long ageing in the bottle: a complex but feminine Barbera, real and direct. PAIRING This pleasant wine is ideal served throughout a meal, but it is particularly well-suited to pairing with rich and tasty rice and pasta dishes, Piedmontese mixed boiled meats, roast and braised meats, and medium-mature fatty cheeses. Try it with Bagna Cauda!

PAIRING Perfect with bread and salami, it pairs with all rice, pasta and ethnic dishes. Ideal with pizza or a barbecue with friends. For something surprising, try with fish, especially in soups!

23 Chiesavecchia Monferrato Rosso DOC GRAPE VARIETY Barbera Cabernet Sauvignon - Nebbiolo THE WINE Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon and Nebbiolo: these are the grapes which, vinified and aged separately in barriques, tonneaux and 15-hectolitre tanks, for about a year, give us this Monferrato DOC. Each grape variety gives the wine different nuances, but all three are grown on the same hill, Chiesavecchia, in a hamlet of Calamandrana. This is a warm, pervasive wine, silky smooth on the palate, persistent and elegant, with delicate tannings. Intriguing right from the bouquet. PAIRING Fresh filled patisserie, tajarin with truffle or meat sauce, main courses featuring red meat, from braised cuts to roasts, through to lamb and game.

24 L Aquilone Piemonte DOC Sauvignon GRAPE VARIETY 100% Sauvignon Blanc THE WINE Our L Aquilone is made from 100% Sauvignon, harvested in the second half of August. Vinification takes place exclusively in steel tanks. The result is bright and clear. White flowers and boxwood fill the nose, accompanied by tropical fruit, pineapple, lychees and citrus notes. The palate is fresh, tangy and harmonious. PAIRING It pleasantly accompanies simple and more complex starters, fish dishes and shellfish. Excellent with pasta with delicate sauces and risottos, or with vegetables and white meats. Try with Nizza torta verde!

25 Soul Monferrato Rosso DOC GRAPE VARIETY 100% Nebbiolo THE WINE You don t often come across Nebbiolo, the Langhe grape-variety par excellence, in Monferrato, despite the fact that it was cultivated on our hills in the past. We are convinced that it can reserve some delightful surprises in our soils, so we decided to do our own thing and grow it anyway, ignoring the trends. This is a wine made with the heart rather than the head, hence the name Soul, made with 100% Nebbiolo. With its dull garnet red colour, it presents a complex and intense bouquet, with notes of violet andred fruit, and lighter scents of dried flowers and spices. Elegant and harmonious in the mouth, with sweet, silky tannins. Persistent, balanced and immensely pleasant. PAIRING The nice tannins in this wine are the perfect contrast for particularly rich and succulent rice and pasta dishes, as well as main courses generous in flavour, and sometimes even quite greasy. If you come to the area, try it with Finanziera! Highly enjoyable on its own too, this is the perfect glass of wine to relax with!

26 Brachetto d Acqui DOCG GRAPE VARIETY 100% Brachetto grape Brachetto d Acqui DOCG THE WINE A wine with unmistakable sensory characteristics, which make it one of the symbols of the food and wine culture of these hills between Nizza Monferrato and Acqui Terme. With its characteristic pale cherry red colour, featuring soft violet highlights, it presents a delicate musky aroma, with scents of roses. It tastes sweet but fresh and vivacious, with a good structure and persistence on the palate. PAIRING Usually served at the end of a meal, Brachetto dacqui is ideal with jam tarts or fruit fools, and to accompany strawberries and mixed berries, as well as dry biscuits and macaroons of course. We recommend serving it chilled, at 6-8 C. With about 6% alcohol, it can also be considered an original alternative to a fruit-based cocktail!

27 Moscato d Asti DOCG GRAPE VARIETY 100% Moscato Bianco di Canelli THE WINE Usually harvested at the end of August, when the aromas promise to give their best, our Moscato grapes produce an intense, floral wine, characterised by a pleasant sweetness, balanced by just the right touch of acidity. The aromatic bouquet is that typical of Moscato d Asti. Full and persistent, it is accompanied by light scents of sage. PAIRING Moscato is a light wine, with about 5% alcohol, to be served with all kinds of desserts, chilled to a temperature of about 6-8 C. We recommend it with hazelnut cakes, zabaione and, why not with pears and gorgonzola. Also perfect for a hot summer afternoon treat!

28 Galandrino - Brut Metodo Classico GRAPE VARIETY 50% Chardonnay -50% Pinot Noir THE WINE Our metodo classico is made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, harvested in the second half of August to preserve the freshness and natural acidity of the grapes. Partly fermented in steel and part in barriques, it undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle, on lees, for between 30 and 36 months. Then, as with every metodo classico, disgorging takes place: the deposits are eliminated from the bottle and the liqueur d expédition is added. We are so attached to Galandrino that we ve named it after our family. It is a deep straw-coloured wine with a fine yet persistent perlage and an aroma of crusty bread with vanilla and hazelnut notes. Elegant and complex at the same time, it leaves toasted notes on the palate and a sweet aroma of dried apricot. PAIRING Excellent as an aperitif, it is capable of accompany an entire meal. It pairs well with starters, pasta and risotto, and fish dishes, excelling with all kind of shellfish. Another delicious accompaniment is with tempura, vegetables and white meats. And if we want to take things right back to the basics, it s the perfect wine to drink in excellent company.
