Description
Barolo DOCG, 14% ABV, produced by Prunotto in Alba, in the heart of the Piedmontese Langhe. 1.5L magnum, 2020 vintage. A Barolo that embodies the tradition and excellence of Prunotto, a historic winery that has been producing high-quality wines since 1904. The Nebbiolo grapes, grown in soils rich in fossilized Sant'Agata marl, are meticulously vinified: maceration for approximately 10 days at 30°C, malolactic fermentation completed before the end of winter, and aging for at least 18 months in oak barrels of varying sizes. Complex and expansive aromas with hints of violet and undergrowth. Full-bodied and velvety, very well-balanced on the palate, promising a long evolution in the bottle.
