Raineri – Barolo DOCG – 2018

Barolo Classico is the first Barolo of the winery. In this case are used several vineyards in the commune of Monforte, but mainly the cru Perno and Castelletto, two very interesting plots as for exposure and soils rich in limestone and clay giving the wines more complexity. The wine was aged for 24 months in barrique and two months in bottle.
It is a truly representative Barolo if we talk about the central area of the appellation, with dark aromas reminiscent of tobacco, leather, cocoa, whereas in the mouth apart from the smoothness, earthy notes and persistent tannins are the characteristics that distinguish this wine.

Description

Raineri winery is a real gem, it can be defined as part of those new wave or garagiste projects, new situations, genuine, no frills. The idea was born in 2005 thanks to the friendship born among the desks of the enological school between Fabrizio Giraudo and Gianmatteo Raineri. Being in love with wine, after some experience in wineries of the Langa region, their dream came true with the creation of a few bottles of Dolcetto initially, up to the production of great wines such as Barolo in the commune of Monforte. The road for the boys was not easy at all! Only after 10 years of hard work they managed to find the perfect style and to vinify their first Barolo wines coming from single vineyards by investing on two micro plots such as Perno and Castelletto cru. The style of the winery is dynamic, young but without forgetting the tradition and the respect for the land, taking care of every little detail and the work is done only by hand without the help of any technician. One of the best new discoveries of the last decade!
