Austere, noble reds, pale in colour and quick to turn garnet, with powerful tannins and high acidity, showing aromas of sour cherry, faded rose, tar, white truffle, leather and balsamic notes with age. Outstanding ageing potential. Absolute star of Piedmont with Barolo DOCG and Barbaresco DOCG, also in Roero, Gattinara, Ghemme and Valtellina (Chiavennasca). A late-ripening Italian variety among the world's greatest.
Mexican vinicultural altiplano (Trancoso, Jerez, Fresnillo) at 2,000–2,500 m, dry and cold climate with marked thermal amplitude slowing maturation. Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are signature king reds — structured with intense black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and a spiced touch, firm tannins and ageing potential. Syrah, Malbec and Ruby Cabernet as complements. Chenin Blanc and Ugni Blanc as fresh altitude whites.
