MARCHESI DI BAROLO

Grape variety
100% Barolo

Winemaking
The grapes, harvested by hand, arrive in the cellar intact and are quickly pressed and delicately destemmed to extract only the most noble and aromatic fractions from the skin and from the outermost area of the grape. Fermentation, with maceration of the skins, takes place at a controlled temperature. In this phase, periodic soft pumping over is carried out, so as to allow the must to take advantage of all the trace elements present and to delicately extract the coloring material. Racking takes place only once fermentation is complete. The wine is then decanted into vitrified concrete vats, specially made with cork insulation, so as to maintain a temperature suitable for prompt malolactic fermentation.

Refinement
At least 18 months of maturation in oak barrels of different capacities: chosen every year based on the characteristics that the different the lands of origin and the vintage have given the wine, allow it to best bring out its peculiar qualities. It completes its refinement in the bottle before being put on the market.

Organoleptic characteristics
The color is garnet red, with ruby shades.

The perfume is intense and persistent with a clear hint of spices, cinnamon, absinthe, tobacco and scrub rose. The taste is full and elegant, with soft and enveloping tannins. Spicy and woody blend together perfectly.
