Renato Corino – Barolo Riserva – 2018
In vintages in which superb grape quality is obtained, the winery produces Barolo in the Riserva denomination, prolonging aging in the cellar for a minimum of 5 years before being put on the market. The vineyard used for the production of Barolo Riserva come from the cru Rocche dell’Annunziata in La Morra, considered for the winery to be the most complex parcel capable of giving excellent results over time thanks to the average age of 65 years of the plants and the sand-rich soils guaranteeing the Barolo elegance and well-defined structure. The wine underwent fermentation in steel tanks for about a week and malolactic fermentation in wooden barrels, and then aged in medium-capacity barrels for 24 months and about 4 years in the bottle. Barolo of great flesh and structure without lacking freshness, of great potential for the next 20 years.

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.
