VINEYARD Fruit for the Barolo was sourced from grapes grown in several vineyard sites in Serralunga d'Alba, situated at an altitude of 320-360 metres above sea level. The soil is composed predominantly of limestone. The vines are Guyot-trained and are planted at a density of 5,000 to 6,000 vines per hectare. They range in age from 4 to 35 years old. The average yield is 52hl/ha. GRAPE VARIETIES 100% Nebbiolo VINIFICATION The grapes for this wine were hand-picked in the second half of October. Fermentation and maceration lasts approximately 15 days at temperatures between 31-33ºC. The wine was matured in large oak casks for 30 months followed by a year in bottle before release. TASTING NOTE As the grapes come from various sub-zones, this wine possesses a vast range of perfumes, from classic spicy notes, to sweeter, flowery, fruity notes. Per Bottle £27.49 Quantity:
