Description

The Barolo del Comune di Barolo derives from the processing of grapes coming from the best crus of the Municipality of Barolo. Grapes harvested in Cannubi, Sarmassa, Coste di Rose, Vignane, Preda, Boschetti and Ravera contribute to the production of the wine. These vineyards are characterized by soils rich in clay (Marne di Sant'Agata) and different percentages of sand, silt and limestone. The perfect combination of the different characteristics of the terroir gives the wine a balanced harmony between structure and finesse.

The Marchesi di Barolo winery was founded in 1806 in the heart of the Langhe, following the marriage between Carlo Tancredi Falletti and the French aristocrat Juliette Colbert di Maulévrier, who understood the importance of nebbiolo grapes, the production of which gave rise to intense, decisive wines that would improve with time. Xtrawine devotes special attention to Marchesi di Barolo wines, proposing bottles that have received important awards from Bibenda and belonging to the best vintages of 2012, 2013 and 2016. At the end of the 19th century, the Marchesi di Barolo winery was acquired by Pietro Abbona, and is now run by his nephew Ernesto Abbona, who can count on a vineyard estate of 65 hectares from which come high-quality wines that add to the winery's fame. Thanks to the climatic conditions and the fertility of the land, aromatic, pure and simple grapes are cultivated, which are processed in the cellar to the best of their ability thanks to proven experience in the field.

Harvest The grapes from the individual vineyards are rigorously harvested by hand and a selection of the best bunches is made already in the vineyard.
Wine making Each cru is vinified separately: the destemmed and pressed grapes ferment at a controlled temperature in stainless steel fermenters. The maceration on the skins lasts approximately 15 days during which the operations of pumping the must over the pomace cap favor maximum extraction of the polyphenolic substances contained within the peel.
Aging After malolactic fermentation, the individual wines obtained from the different crus are blended. The refinement of Barolo from the Municipality of Barolo lasts approximately 2 years, of which the first year half of the volume in small French oak barrels and the remaining half in 30 hl Slavonian oak barrels; while the second year the entire volume is brought together and the maturation ends in large traditional Slavonian oak barrels.
