Distinguished by a garnet red colour with ruby highlights, it offers a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex bouquet\u003c\/strong\u003e in which aromas of violet, rose petals, red fruits and undergrowth intertwine, enriched by delicate spicy nuances. On the palate, it reveals a classic and well-structured style, with a full and velvety sip, perfectly balanced by \u003cstrong\u003eelegant and silky tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is born in the heart of \u003cstrong\u003eBarolo\u003c\/strong\u003e, in Piedmont, from vineyards located in historic communes such as La Morra, Serralunga d’Alba, Monforte d’Alba and Castiglione Falletto. The vines sink their roots into the \u003cstrong\u003eFossil Marls of Sant’Agata\u003c\/strong\u003e, soils from the Tortonian-Messinian era rich in calcareous clays, magnesium and manganese. The dry and mild climate limits summer vegetative growth, favouring the development of \u003cstrong\u003esmaller berries\u003c\/strong\u003e, which ensure a high sugar concentration and optimal ripening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest begins in autumn with selected grapes, which are carefully destemmed and crushed. The \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e lasts about ten days, without exceeding thirty degrees, so as to gently extract colour and aromas. Malolactic fermentation is completed before the end of winter, followed by an ageing period of at least eighteen months in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e of various sizes. This technical choice modulates the structural evolution of the wine, ensuring impeccable gustatory harmony and a \u003cstrong\u003erich and persistent finish\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated in 1905, this historic Prunotto label celebrates the noble power of \u003cstrong\u003epure Nebbiolo\u003c\/strong\u003e.
