Warm sensations and \u003cstrong\u003espicy notes\u003c\/strong\u003e complete a satisfying tasting experience, ideal paired with game, rich international dishes and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Barolo originates in Piedmont, in the area of \u003cstrong\u003eMonforte d’Alba\u003c\/strong\u003e, from grapes harvested in renowned parcels such as Bussia, Cannubi and Villero. The vines grow in a hilly area at around 350 metres above sea level, benefiting from optimal east and south-west exposures. The terroir is defined by an \u003cstrong\u003eelvezian soil\u003c\/strong\u003e, characterised by a complex layering of sand, clay and calcareous marl, enriched by a significant concentration of iron. This unique ecosystem gives the Nebbiolo a solid structure and a distinctive aromatic imprint, ensuring an \u003cstrong\u003eageing potential\u003c\/strong\u003e that can easily exceed a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest takes place at the beginning of October with rigorous selection in the vineyard, minimising interventions in the cellar. The process involves a \u003cstrong\u003elong maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e and spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tanks lasting about forty days. After a period of rest in steel, the wine matures for thirty months in large \u003cstrong\u003eSlavonian oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, then completes its balance with a final refinement in the bottle. To enhance the depth of this red, a \u003cstrong\u003epreliminary decanting\u003c\/strong\u003e of one hour is recommended, serving the wine at an ideal temperature between 18 and 20°C.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 Barolo by Giacomo Fenocchio embodies the excellence of Monforte d’Alba, the result of a noble family tradition that began in 1864.
