Boroli Barolo Villero is a single-cru Barolo from one of Castiglione Falletto’s most prized south and south-west facing vineyards, a historic MGA renowned for giving Nebbiolo both depth and line. The Boroli family farm clay-limestone soils with good water-holding capacity here, harvesting by hand around mid-October and dividing the site into micro-parcels so that each block and ripeness zone can be vinified and aged separately before a final blend. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel with long submerged-cap maceration of up to 30 days, followed by at least 18 months in a mix of barriques and larger oak before extended time in bottle, building structure while keeping tannins smooth. In the glass, Villero typically shows bright ruby to garnet colour, persistent aromas of ripe red fruits, plum and cherry with floral and spicy notes, and a succulent, full-bodied palate with sweet, fine tannins and a deep, long finish, built to reveal its full potential over many years in the cellar.

First produced in 1911. The fruit for Massolino's classic Nebbiolo cuvée is selected from seven sites, representing roughly seven hectares of prime-sited Serralunga vineyards. The oldest vines that feed this bottling are 55 years old (the youngest are 10), and it spends 24 months in large Slovenian oak (only).

Brilliant ruby to garnet red in colour. Among the aromatics we recognise rose hip, violet, iodate perfumes, ashes, tobacco, white peaches, red cherries, balsamic elements such as fresh mint to name some. On the palate it's full on energy and all about freshness and finesse. The acidity is sharp, the tannins have a beautiful tension yet they are harmonious in the structure. Paolo Scavino owns 29 hectares entirely in the Barolo area and works on 20 Barolo historical crus located in Castiglione Falletto, Barolo, La Morra, Novello, Serralunga d'Alba, Verduno and Roddi. The Scavino family distinguishes itself from the beginning by their scrupulous care of the vineyards and passion for terroir. Their core beliefs is the supremacy of the viticulture above the oenology therefore the focus is the care of the vines in order to grow ripe and healthy grapes. In winemaking minimal and equal intervention are sought, to preserve natural diversities, terroir.

The Barolo Carobric personality is about focus, precision of elements, intensity and length. The aromatics are lifted with a beautiful tension and clarity.

Bricco Ambrogio has an intense and multifaced aromatic spectrum. The core is soft and polished through a beautiful acid-tannic balance. There is an underlying depth in this Barolo and the finish is long and nuanced.

Roberto Voerzio Barolo del Comune di La Morra The Barolo del Commune di La Morra is a wine made from grapes grown in the La Serra, Fossati, Case Nere and Boiolo vineyards. Roberto leaves each cluster weighing around 1kg instead of the 500g clusters used for the Cru Baroli. This is a stellar wine and a very good introduction to the range and philosophy of Roberto Voerzio.
