Mauro Molino Barolo DOCG

Case of 6 bottles

Bottle Size: 750 ml

Vintage: 2020

Varietals: Nebbiolo 100%

Alcohol %: 14

Region: Piemonte

Tasting Notes: An intense bouquet with hints of ripe fruit and rose petals. Persistent in taste, thanks to its fine and enveloping tannins that give an elegant pleasantness to this wine.

Ageing/Vinification: Medium-long maceration, fermentation in steel tanks. Aged in French oak barrels for at least 18 months. This process helps to develop its complex flavors and smooth texture.

Vineyard: Approximately 12 hectares of vineyards, 50% dedicated to Nebbiolo for Barolo, and the rest mostly Barbera, and Dolcetto. Vineyards are on calcareous/clayey soil. Integrated insect and disease control is followed. Control treatments are carried out only when strictly necessary (an expert consults for the estate). Sulfur- and copper-based products are mainly used. A minimum number of insect-control treatments are applied and only with low-environmental-impact products. Natural cover crops (grass cover) are left in the rows between the vines. In autumn the soil on every other row between the vines is tilled. Only organic fertilizers are used. Very low doses of SO2 are added to the wines (the minimum to prevent oxidation).
