Renato Corino – Barolo Arborina – 2020

Arborina can be ranked among the best parcels in the commune of La Morra, revalued only since the 1970s thanks to Barolista Elio Altare. Located at an altitude of 300 meters exposed totally between south/east, it is rich in sandy soils giving the nebbiolos pure elegance and fine tannins. Here the winery produces a maximum of 4,000 bottles a year, where fermentation takes place in steel tanks for a week, while malolactic fermentation takes place in wooden barrels, and then aging for 24 months in medium-capacity oak casks. Extremely balanced Barolo, with cherry aromas with light tobacco and balsamic notes while in the mouth it has soft, gentle tannins and a crisp, fresh finish.

Description

The Renato Corino winery was founded in 2005 in La Morra, thanks to Renato, who after 20 years of experience working in his father Giovanni’s winery, decided to break away from the family project and create his own reality. Renato together with his two sons Stefano and Chiara cultivate 8 hectares, mainly nebbiolo for Barolo, but not forgetting Barbera and dolcetto. Among other things, the winery owns three wonderful vineyards, recognized as some of the highest quality in the Barolo area: Rocche dell’Annunziata and Arborina famous for giving elegance, structure and intense aromas to Barolos and the Vigna Pozzo dell’Annunziata, also located in the Annunziata hamlet of La Morra and enjoying a privileged position, famous for Barbera, one of the best in the area. The winery’s style is slightly modern: fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks, malolactic fermentation in wooden barrels and aging in barriques, despite which the wines are very balanced and unobtrusive from the barrel, indeed the freshness of La Morra’s lean soils prevails.
