Livia Fontana, aided by her two sons, produces Barolo from Bussia in Monforte, and also this Villero from Castiglione Falletto. The prettiness of the nose, with its fragrant rose and raspberry aromas, is often typical of Villero, which has fairly sandy soils. It's intense and very fresh, showing mellow tannins and a distinct pungency because of its rather fierce acidity. It's quite long but it shows limited complexity at present.
