Description
Still red Barolo DOCG, 14.5% ABV, produced by Armando Parusso in Monforte d'Alba, Piedmont. 100% Nebbiolo, 2020 vintage. A Barolo that embodies the passion and dedication of a family that transformed from farmers into winemakers, continuing to treasure the values our parents instilled in us since childhood. A journey of dedication, passion, and a constant desire to improve, to experiment, but also to rediscover traditional knowledge and ancient winemaking arts. Grapes are harvested strictly by hand with the utmost care in small perforated baskets. After a gentle pressing, the grapes undergo a long maceration. Alcoholic fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts without the use of sulfites, with careful control of maceration times and temperatures. Aged in small oak barrels for a minimum of 18 months in contact with its indigenous yeasts. Rich, with notes of red fruit, rose petals, and earth, rising hints of spice and mint. Deep ruby red, garnet red. Noble tannins, wonderfully fine-grained, silky, and sweet.
