The vineyards benefit from an ideal east and south-east exposure, situated at an altitude between 320 and 370 metres above sea level.

The \u003cstrong\u003ewood maturation\u003c\/strong\u003e process lasts about two years: the wine initially rests for twelve months in small \u003cstrong\u003ebarrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, then continues ageing for another year in large \u003cstrong\u003eAllier barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. After a light fining to refine the flavour profile, the wine rests further for at least twelve months before being released to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1878 in Serralunga d’Alba, Casa E. di Mirafiore signs the excellent \u003cstrong\u003eBarolo DOCG Paiagallo 2021\u003c\/strong\u003e, a fine organic and vegan red wine made from Nebbiolo grapes from the “La Villa” vineyard.
