In Piedmont the word “Bricco” represents the highest part of the hill, the best exposed one. Bricco Bonfante belongs to the Bonfante family since 8 generations. On this hill it was selected one and a half hectare of vineyard which is south-exposed. 

Bright purple-red color. It has a winy bouquet, with scents of red fruits like cherries and Marasca cherry, and a very delicate vanilla note. On the palate it is dry, full-bodied, structured, with the acidity typical of this variety. It’s persistent and the tannins are well balanced.
