Barolo
Annunziata
The Annunziata Cru is our second expression of La Morra. The vineyard grows at altitudes of half hill and contains body and elegance. The aromas and flavors are more concentrated, but they do not cover the fineness. A perfect Barolo for those who love the structure that embraces a gentle tannin.
- Area of originLa Morra, Annunziata MGA
- Grape variety100% Nebbiolo
- Vinification and ageingThe grapes are destemmed and gently crushed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel with temperature control to promote the extraction of delicate aromas, skin contact lasts for a total of 3 weeks with regular pump overs. 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.
