Barolo
Meriame
The Barolo Meriame is Serralunga d’Alba, it is power, it is structure. The expression of a historically perfect land for the cultivation of Nebbiolo. Definitely a wine that appreciates bottle aging to dampen the more austere traits of youth. We produce only 1000 bottles, it is a small treasure that we are happy to add to our range.
- Area of originSerralunga d’Alba, Meriame MGA
- Grape variety100% Nebbiolo
- Vinification and ageingThe vinification uses 90% whole bunch fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel with temperature control to promote the extraction of delicate aromas, we rarely pump over which combined with the low amount of grape must allow us to prolong the extraction of the colour and structure from the skins. Malolactic conversion takes place in stainless steel before the wines are moved into wood. Aged in large wooden botte for around 24 months. In the spring following the completion of the ageing in wood the wine is returned to stainless steel before being bottled in the following June. We keep the wines in our cellar for a minimum of 18 months before releasing them to the market.
