2019 Barolo Treturne, Fogliati, Piedmont, Italy

Description

Made from a selection of three 80-year-old vineyard plots, the Barolo Treturne represents the essence of Podere Fogliati. The wine underwent a long maceration, followed by two years in 50 hectolitre Stockinger botti and cement vats. The nose is generous, high-toned and filled with fragrances of essential oil and old-vine spice. The palate offers sweet berry fruit, and the typical firm tannins of the 2019 vintage, but with a prizeworthy, sandy-soil softness. There are mineral notes and hints of musk rose on the finish.

Walter Speller 17++/20
A very pretty, leafy, fragrant cherry nose that is supported by a touch of oak. Gorgeous fresh red fruit with fantastic tannic bite. Very long and vibrant and with real chew on the finish. Drink 2023-2032Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com (November 2022)

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.

Poderi Fogliati

In the very heart of Barolo, where the communes of Castiglione Falletto, Barolo, La Morra and Monforte d’Alba meet, we find the rising hill of Pugnane which leads to the northern tip of the Bussia cru. This special location is home to the relatively unknown cantina Podere Fogliati, run by the vibrant and ambitious Annalisa Chiappa. After time working as a lawyer in Miami, she returned to her family home in 2016 with one goal: to realise the enormous potential of her family estate.
