The wolf, "LU" in Piedmont dialect, that plays with the child, symbolizes the deep bond and the affectivity of man with his territory and nature. The integration with the nature, even if aggressive, enables to play with a wild animal. Grignolino d'Asti is a ladylike wine that Re Umberto I prefered to his canteen, resulted to a vineyard grown before the eighteenth century.
