Giacomo Fenocchio – Barolo Villero – 2020
Barolo Villero comes from the cru of the same name, located in Castiglione Falletto, in a southwestern exposure, already considered by the elders to be one of the best vineyards, giving super elegant wines thanks to the richest sandy soils, but above all with a great capacity to evolve over time. Theirs is a wine that fully represents the characteristics of this vineyard, carries out a 40-day maceration on the skins and an aging of more than 24 months in large oak barrels. A wine with very intense and sweet aromas, but with super silky tannins. Beautiful to drink even now when young, but absolutely to keep and preserve.

Description
At the Giacomo Fenocchio winery you can breathe in the tradition and territory of the Langa.
Founded in 1864 in the hamlet of Bussia in Monforte d’Alba, they have been wine producers for generations, but only since the 1970s, thanks to Giacomo, did they begin to promote and focus on fine, quality wines. Now the winery is run by his sons Claudio and Albino, who have always been in love with their land, so much so that they take care of the vineyards as cleanly as possible, despite not having organic certification.
Nowadays the winery owns 11 hectares of vineyards located among different communes in the Barolo area, but each with its own soil. The winery is mainly famous for producing Barolo from individual vineyards, such as Bussia, the legendary Cannubi and Villero and Castellero. All first-class vineyards!!!
The winery’s philosophy is to produce clean, territorial wines with long macerations on the skins and the exclusive use of only the large barrel for aging, so as to enhance the various aromas, structure and tannins.
