Vite Colte Barolo di Barolo “Essenze” Riserva
Barolo DOCG Riserva “Essenze” is a Barolo blend of the finest pedigree. It is produced only in special vintages.
Despite utilizing traditional winemaking practices, our house style is evident, which emphasizes full-bodied wines with emphatic fruit, and optimal balance among all components as well.
After long maceration on the skins for some 25 days, malolactic fermentation is completed in steel. The wine is then matured in large oak barrels for 36 months. The blend takes place before bottling selecting the best expressions of the vintage.
Still another 24 months minimum in bottle are necessary for this premium Riserva.
