Description
Still red Barolo DOCG Monvigliero, 14.5% ABV, produced by Poderi Gianni Gagliardo, 2020 vintage. A Barolo that expresses the elegance and complexity of Nebbiolo, with a mineral and fruity expression that captivates the palate. The Poderi Gianni Gagliardo winery was born from a tradition of winemakers present in Piedmont since 1847. Generation after generation, the Colla family has moved from the Santo Stefano Belbo area, home of Moscato, to the area of great reds. In 1961, Paolo Colla moved to La Morra, realizing his lifelong dream: producing Barolo. Maceration: 14 days. Aged 30 months in a single used tonneaux. The first nose opens with a taut minerality of chalk and talc. Bright strawberries and cherries on a dazzling bouquet of lavender, cloves, and tulip flowers. In the background, subtle hints of dried balsamic bay leaf, lichen, damp black moss, and eucalyptus. A layer of tannins grips, but it remains fresh and long on the finish with lingering fruity and mineral accents.

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
