2019 Barolo, Diego e Damiano Barale, Piedmont, Italy

Description

Diego and Damiano Barale’s Barolo Classico comes from a blend of their two vineyards in the Barolo and Monforte communes, which contribute different characteristics to create a harmonious blend. This wine is particularly stunning in 2019. The west-facing, sandy soils of the Monrobiolo di Bussia cru bring a warmth and richness, with notes of succulent cherry and chewy tannins. The cooler, east-facing, marly soils of San Giovanni elevate this powerful wine with fragrance and mineral purity. Balanced, concentrated and fine, the quality of the vintage really shines through here.

About this wine

Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines and is hardly ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the region.

Barolo

Barolo

Piedmont's most famous wine DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita), Barolo is renowned for producing Italy's finest reds from 100 percent Nebbiolo. The Barolo appellation was formalised in 1966 at around 1,700 hectares, and has an exceptional terroir with almost every village perched on its own hill. The climate is continental, with an extended summer and autumn enabling the fickle Nebbiolo to achieve perfect ripeness.
