Tasting Notes
Garnet red color, this Barolo has full and long-lasting aromas of floral, citrus, a hint of spices, vanilla, and soft fruits. The finish is dry, but full and velvety
Vineyards
Barolo D.O.C.G. “Monvigliero” wine grows in the vineyards from one of the best area of Verduno, located in Barolo villages at 200 to 300 ft. above sea level. The average age of the vines is 50 years old, and they are grown on a southern exposure in calcareous clay soils, at a density of about 12,300 plants per acre.
Winemaking
After harvesting, the grapes are pressed and the must is fermented in temperature-controlled steel tanks, after a short period in contact with dry ice, to increase complexity and aroma.
