2014 Comm. G.B. Burlotto, Barolo, Monvigliero 3L

Description

Monvigliero cru in Verduno stands as the pinnacle parcel in Verduno with soils composed of 40% silt, 30% limestone, and 30% sand, mixed with traditional Sant’Agata marls. At 300 meters altitude and facing south, the 45-year-old vines enjoy a full day’s sunlight. Following whole cluster fermentation in Slavonian oak barrels and a remarkable 60-day maceration, the wine ages in large wood botti for about 3 years, then undergoes 9 months of bottle aging.
