BAROLO COSTE DI ROSE D.O.C.G. 2019

Bright ruby red in colour with delicate garnet nuances. The nose is dominated by notes of rosehip and peony, accompanied by crisp hints of black pepper and clove. Delicate oak nuances on the finish define the wine’s elegance. Broad and velvety on the palate, with a refined structure and beautifully integrated tannins.

Designation: Barolo DOCG

Grape variety: 100% Nebbiolo

Production area: Coste di Rose hillside, Barolo, Langhe, Cuneo, Piedmont

Training system: vertical trellising with Guyot pruning

Harvest: picked by hand into crates, selecting only the finest bunches

Vinification: the grapes are selectively destemmed and gently crushed before undergoing alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature of 24–26°C, preserving the full aromatic potential of this distinctive terroir. Délestage, or rack-and-return, and pump-overs are then repeated during a 15–18-day maceration, encouraging the gradual and complete extraction of the skins’ finest polyphenolic components

Ageing: after racking, the wine undergoes a period of clarification and rest in vitrified concrete vats. It then matures in wood for approximately 24 months: the first 12 months in small French oak barrels to stabilise the colour and increase its ageing potential. The proportion of new oak is carefully balanced to preserve the distinctive identity of this Cru. During the following 12 months, the wine matures in large Slavonian oak casks, enhancing its finesse and elegance. Ageing is completed with at least 12 months in the bottle

Alcohol content: 14.5% – Contains sulphites
