Casa Di Mirafiore is located in Serralunga d'Alba (Cuneo), in the Piedmont region.

The winery was founded at the end of the 1800s by Count Emanuele Alberto of Mirafiore, son of Vittorio Emanuele II and La Bella Rosin.

Since 1878, Casa E. Di Mirafiore has been overlooking this UNESCO world heritage landscape with his estates in Barolo and Serralunga, the heart of one of the world's most famous wines: Barolo.

It is also thanks to Casa E. Di Mirafiore that the world is aware of Barolo. It is in fact the first winery to export Barolo worldwide.

This estate is synonymous with quality, as it is home to two of the best Cru vineyards in the Langhe: Lazzarito (on one of Serralunga d'Alba's most magnificent slopes) and Paiagallo.

In this town, Serralunga d'Alba, tradition is never forgotten. Even today, the style of Casa E. Mirafiore is defined by fermentation in concrete tanks and enormous Slavonian oak barrels for ageing. Read more

Origin Vigna La Villa in the municipality of Barolo. Altitude 320-370m above sea level. Exposure: east, southeast.
Wine making The grapes are de-stemmed and crushed, then heated up to around 32-33 ° C and immediately begin pumping. During the first 3 days the number and frequency of replacements is very high to optimize the extraction of large quantities of tannins and color. With the increase of the alcohol content, to avoid the excessive extraction of tannins, reduces both the temperature (? Up to 25 ° C), both the volume of the liquid pumped over the skins. The maceration lasts 20-30 days and during this period delastages are performed to optimize and improve the extraction of tannins and at the same time to oxygenate the yeast that can ferment in ideal conditions, obtaining perfumes and aromas net and elegant. After the alcoholic fermentation immediately proceed with the malolactic fermentation that is favored keeping the wine at a temperature around 20 ° C in thermo containers.
Aging It starts in barrels and lasts about 12 months. After the wine is transferred in Allier barrels of 2-3 thousand liters, where it continues to refine for 1 year. At the end of the stay in the timber is made, if necessary, further clarification to round some edginess and remained to achieve brilliance optimal wine, which is then bottled and aged for at least another year before release.
