Barolo Ginestra VIGNA SORÌ GINESTRA DOCG CONTERNO FANTINO

A robust and very intense red wine that originates from the cru of Monforte d'Alba, in particular from Vigna Sorì Ginestra. Pure Nebbiolo grapes grow on silty, sandy, calcareous soils, exposed to the south and at an altitude ranging from 330 to 370 m above sea level. After manually harvesting the bunches around mid-October, the process proceeds with maceration and alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled steel, followed by malolactic fermentation in wood and final aging in French oak wood for 24 months.
