Description
The Barolo ‘Castiglione’ is Vietti's interpretation of a classic Barolo. The grapes for producing this wine are sourced from various very important small vineyards located all over the Barolo region.
Geology: calcareous and clayey soil. The age of the grapevines is between 10 and 45 years old; they are trained in the Guyot trellis system, with an average density of about 4,500 plants per hectare.
Taste
On the palate, the flavor is classic, rich and potent, with notes of alpine herbs and a leathery finish. The tannins are well-integrated.
Vinification
each individual MGA is vinified and aged separately and in different ways to enhance the characteristics of each “terroir”. Alcoholic fermentation lasts around 3-4 weeks in stainless steel tanks, in contact with the skins. This period includes pre- and post-fermentation maceration, with the use of the traditional submerged-cap method. Malolactic fermentation takes place in wood.
Aging
30 months in large barrels and, for a small portion, in barriques. Each cru is vinified separately and assembled before bottling.
