Barolo

Barolo DOCG

Barolo, an extraordinary wine that owes its fame to an equally extraordinary woman: Giulia Falletti, Marquise of Barolo. It was her who contributed to the birth of modern Barolo and its diffusion. An elegant wine that comes from the Nebbiolo grapes of a few municipalities in the
Langhe: the king of Piedmontese wines. A red that evolves over the years and which maintains and enriches all its charm over time.

South-west exposure. Loamy and clayey soils with a fair percentage of sand. The 2017 vintage will be remembered for its hot climate and low rainfall. Vintage characterized by an early harvest with low production, but one of great quality.

Vinification

The selected grapes were de-stemmed and pressed and fermented in steel tanks. Maceration lasted about 10 days at a maximum temperature of 30 ° C. The malolactic fermentation ended before the end of winter. Matured for at least 18 months in oak barrels of different capacities.

To enjoy a good Barolo you don't need elaborate dishes. Its natural elegance perfectly matches the simplicity of a Fassona tartare, a first course with porcini mushrooms from Borgotaro or the classic and inimitable fried egg with truffle.
