“Un vino d’oro splendea
nei bicchieri che ci inebriò
l’amore, nei tuoi occhi neri,
fuoco in una radura s’incendiò.”

Falò d’ottobre is a red wine came into life from a couple of rows of red grape variety which we decide to vinify as single varietal only in very rare vintages where the grapes reach the ideal ripeness. Since the quantities are very small and rare, there is not a set procedure, we play with the moment and with the feeling the juice pass us. It is the wine where we experiment the most my holistic approach of listening to the wine to learn how to proceed in the vinification and aging. The wine combines clearly all the varietal classic notes with the uniqueness of the Tortonesi’s hills, their complex soil and their special climate. Falò d’Ottobre is a precious wine, I like to drink it in special occasions, and it always makes me feel romantic.
Very intense ruby red with marked violet reflections, with aging it tends to garnet, brilliant.
Red fruits, cherries, morello cherries, black cherries, tamarinds, raspberries, small berries. Light pepper, cloves, leather, coffee, licorice, balsamic notes.
Good body, great structure, tannin present and very well polished, fine and persistent at the same time.
Appetizers based on cured meats, first courses with meat-based sauces, roasts and small game dishes, medium or longer aged cheeses.
Pasta with broccoli, potato and mushroom pie, ratatouille, castagnaccio.
