Description
Barolo La Tartufaia, 2021 vintage, 14.5% ABV, produced by Giulia Negri in the La Morra area of Piedmont. 0.75L bottle. A Barolo born from the passion of Giulia Negri, heir to a long family tradition, and the wisdom of her winemaker. The Nebbiolo grapes come from vineyards located at 500 meters above sea level, with a western exposure, on Tortonian soils. Spontaneous fermentation in 60hl truncated cone-shaped wooden vats, with a maceration period of approximately 40 days. Aged for 24 months in 25hl Slavonian oak barrels. Ample, dominated by a balsamic and earthy profile. Hints of violet, cinchona, rhubarb, and mint marry with dark notes of undergrowth, damp earth, and ash. The entry is soft, enveloping, and warm. It fades, revealing a texture of great freshness and vigorous tannins.

Looking onto the land of the Barolo on one side and the entire span of Piedmont on the other, Serradenari offered a refuge for the peasants escaping the Black Death in the Middle Ages. Those peasants brought their savings with them and, therefore, by the year 1400, the place became known as Sara’ ‘Dne, or the coin mountain. To this day, ancient millstones are occasionally discovered in the woods of Serradenari. The village of La Morra probably owes its name to one of those millstones, called ‘Mole’ in the local dialect.
A small patch of land that nurtures both the white truffle of Alba and the minerals that help produce the great Langa wines. Serradenari is a symbol and an reassertion of the double inscription of this land on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Read more
