Barolo
Barolo is considered one of the greatest red wines in the world and represents the absolute excellence of Piedmont. Produced exclusively with 100% Nebbiolo grapes, it originates in the hills of the Langhe, in the heart of the province of Cuneo, within eleven municipalities including Barolo, La Morra, Monforte d'Alba, Serralunga d'Alba and Castiglione Falletto.
Its unmistakable character derives from a unique terroir, made of calcareous marl, clay, and sand, which give the wines structure, elegance, and an extraordinary aging potential. The more classic versions age for at least 38 months (of which 18 in wood), while Barolo Riserva requires 62 months before being released to the market.
In the glass, Barolo presents a luminous garnet color, complex and layered aromas of withered rose, cherry, liquorice, tobacco, goudron, and sweet spices.
On the palate, it is intense, austere, and profound, with important tannins and a freshness that allows it to evolve for decades, transforming gracefully over time.
Each cru and each hill offer different nuances: those from La Morra and Barolo are more floral and soft, while those from Serralunga d'Alba and Monforte are more structured and long-lived; Castiglione Falletto represents the perfect balance between strength and finesse.
Barolo is a meditation wine, but it finds perfect expression when paired with red meats, game, braised dishes, and aged cheeses. More than any other wine, it tells the story of the cultural depth and nobility of Nebbiolo, a symbol of Piedmont and great Italian winemaking craftsmanship.
