Marchesi di Barolo have vineyards in the town of Barolo, in the Langhe area, in Roero and in Monferrato Nicese. They have been making wine and aging it in the ancient cellars of Marchesi di Barolo for six generations. Today, Ernesto and Anna, and their children Valentina and Davide are at the helm, after buying the ancient cellars of Marchesi di Barolo in 1929, they have devoted themselves to the activity that ‘pioneer’ Marchesi Falletti had started at the beginning of the 19th century, as faithful interpreters of the rich diversity of these places, vineyards, and varieties.

The grapes used to make this wine grow in vineyards situated on hills with a good slope, composed of clay and limestone soils, alternated with firm layers of sandstone and covered by quartz sands and very fine silt.

Fermentation, with maceration of the skins, takes place at controlled temperature. In this phase, periodic soft pumping over is carried out, so as to allow the must to gently extract the trace elements, the color and the noble tannins. The racking takes place only when fermentation is complete. The wine is moved into vitrified concrete vats, specially made with cork insulation, so as to maintain a temperature suitable for a prompt start of the malolactic fermentation.

At least 18 months in oak barrels of different capacities. It completes its ageing in the bottle before being put on the market.
