A straw-yellow Riesling with greenish highlights from the Langhe hills, an unusual varietal choice for the region. Intense and aromatic with pineapple and mango notes and a slight hydrocarbon hint, dry, delicate, and elegant with well-balanced acidity and alcohol.
Few expect a Riesling from a Barbaresco producer, but Ca' del Baio's version is genuinely excellent.
