Description

This Barolo comes from one of the most historically renowned single vineyards in the township of Serralunga d’Alba, and is situated in a splendid south-facing exposure. The meticulous care given to the vineyards together with a yield of less than 70 quintals per hectare, guarantees the highest level of quality. During its long aging in Slavonian oak and in the bottle, the wine develops its characteristic flavors: tar (also known as ‘goudron’ in French), black cherry, dried herbs and spices that render the wine unique and famous.

VINEYARD
The Arione estate is situated at the southern-most border of the commune of Serralunga d’Alba, at an altitude of approximately 400 meters above sea level, in a splendid southern exposure. This historic Barolo cru is the property of the Gigi Rosso family. Here we find Nebbiolo grapes for Barolo wine and Barbera d’Alba. The limestone-clay-based soil is ideal for red wines of great finesse, structure and long aging.

VINIFICATION
Natural fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. The fermentation lasts approximately 10 to 12 days and then the wine macerates with the submerged cap for an additional 8 -10 days during which daily pumping-over allows for the optimal extraction of tannins and aromatic components.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Intense garnet-red with lively orange highlights.

NOSE:
A rich bouquet of licorice, dried flowers, ripe black cherries, earth and spice, with a balsamic note of mint-leaf in certain vintages.

TASTE:
Full-bodied, warm and intense. Dry and pleasantly tannic with mineral notes.

Food Pairing

Goes well with meat dishes, especially braised meat (Brasato al Barolo) and game, also aged cheeses.
