100% Nebbiolo This historic wine comes from the carefully selected blend of the Monfalletto Estate vineyards in the town of La Morra. Age of vines are between 15 – 50 years old, all with South / East and South / West exposures giving the perfect grapes and harmonious ripeness. The clayey and calcareous soils add elegance and complexity. Magnesium oxide and manganese in the soil facilitate the maturation of soft and dense tannins. Altitude between 250 – 300 meters above sea level.
All the various lots undergo a period of ageing in different types of French and Slovenian wood for a period between 18 – 24 months. Final assemblage of the chosen lots, bottled and released on the market after 1 year.
The 2016 Barolo Monfalletto is a gorgeous wine that shows just how fabulous the year is. Bright, floral and light on its feet, the 2016 is all class. The elegance and refinement of La Morra come through loud and clear in a mid-weight, aromatically expressive Barolo that hits all the right notes. Best of all, the 2016 will drink well right out of the gate. This is such a gorgeous and classy wine. Wow.
