Vietti Barolo Riserva 2017
The idea of the Barolo Riserva was born during continuous experimentations carried out both in the vineyard and in the cellar, for the choice of the grapes that will be used for the Barolo Castiglione.
Throughout the years, some very high quality plots have started to draw our attention and pushed us to decide to create this wine whose grapes are sourced from different vineyards that are vinified and aged separately.
Winemaking: grapes harvested by hand. For this wine we have partially carried out a whole-grape vinification. The remaining part was destemmed, crushed and conveyed in steel tanks for maceration and alcoholic fermentation. After a few days of cold pre- fermentation maceration, the temperature is raised and fermentation begins; it lasts about 20 days with regular pumping-overs.
Ageing: about 24 months in large oak barrels.
On the nose notes of small ripe red fruits with balsamic and citrus hints.
On the palate it is medium-bodied, rich, full and elegant. The tannins, typical of the Serralunga aera, are well integrated, with a sweet finish. Its vibrant acidity gives depth to the wine.
