Gillardi – Barolo DOCG – 2020
Since 2011, thanks to the collaboration with the Patrito family of Barolo, Giacolino Gillardi has had the opportunity to produce his Barolo, which unlike his other wines, has a decidedly more traditional style. The vineyards used are Zuncaie and Vignane in Barolo with mainly clay soils, and Boiolo in La Morra with sandy soils, resulting in a medium-bodied wine that recalls the tradition of Barolo Classico. The highlight of this wine is precisely its aging: 36 months of aging in large oak barrels and more than a year in the bottle. An old-time Barolo, with balsamic aromas, black pepper, violet, it is flat in the mouth, with round but never too invasive tannins.

Description
A decidedly unconventional producer, a Piedmontese with a great passion for the international wine scene, innovation combined with great love for his terroir this is Giacolino Gillardi. We are in Farigliano where since the early 80s they started producing two different dolcettos but since Giacolino has always loved risk he decided to plant three different international grape varieties: Syrah, Merlot and Grenache surprising everyone with the excellent quality and expressiveness of the wines. Since 2011 the family has been producing Barolo from a few tiny plots in the commune of La Morra and Barolo.
