Gusto

Taste

This Barolo from Monforte shows a delicate marine and salty scents overwhelmed by the ripe cherries, plums and pomegranate skins on delicate flavors of rose petal, dried lavender and liquorice dust. Austere with a justified representative character tannins of the most typical Barolo but with a subtle softer roundy finish. Chunks of salty mineral zests on a balsamic note played the role of this Castelletto.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1974
  • Oenologist: Daniele Benevello
  • Bottles produced: 160.000
  • Hectares: 25
The Poderi Gianni Gagliardo winery was born from a tradition of winemakers present in Piedmont since 1847. Generation after generation, the Colla family moved from the Santo Stefano Belbo area, home of Moscato, to the area of great red wines.

In 1961, Paolo Colla moved to La Morra, realising his lifelong dream of producing Barolo. In 1972, Gianni Gagliardo married Paolo's only daughter and soon began working with him.

The bottling of the estate's wines went from amateur to professional in 1974, and since then it has been a continuous evolution. In the 2000s, the new generation gradually came into play. Today, Stefano, Alberto and Paolo work alongside their father in the management and development of the company's projects. Read more
