It has boasted the Controlled Designation of Origin status since 1980. An ambassador of Italian wine all over the world, the Barolo owes its origins to Camillo Benso, count of Cavour, who towards the mid 1800s began experimenting in the production of a wine which used the “michet”, “lampia” and “rosé” sub-varieties of the Nebbiolo vine. This led to the creation of a wine destined to become the piece de resistance of the Savoy dynasty, which was then offered as a gift to all the royal courts in Europe. There can be no compromises when it comes to the “king of wine”: a long ageing process, first in wood, then in bottles, is the only way to reach excellence and to develop those refined and pungent aromas which distinguish the maturity of the Barolo. The maximum yield allows is 80 quintals of grapes per hectare; in addition, rigorous pruning and thinning of the bunches during the summer entail a very limited fruit production. The grapes are picked mid-October, following a slow fermentation and long maceration, during which the wine enriches itself with all the natural elements present in the skin. After racking, the wine is poured into wooden barrels, where it completes its malolactic fermentation and remains for at least 18 months. The Barolo completes its ageing in a bottle for another year, before making its debut on the market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eVineyards: Barolo area\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eVintage: 2020\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAltitude: 250\/300m\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eYield per hectare: 80\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eResidual sugar: 0.5 g\/l\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAlcohol: 14.00% vol\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAcidity: 5.10 g\/l\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eBottle size: (0.75 lt)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eFirst year of production: 2007\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eColour: intense ruby red, tends towards garnet-red once aged\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eNose: round, strong, spiced, with floral and fruity hints\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eTaste: full and elegant taste, well-structured with highly-elegant and\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003ewell balanced tannins, and a long and harmonious after-taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eFood pairings: it goes well with meat ravioli, red meat dishes, boiled meat, braised meats and game.
