Giacosa Fratelli Barolo Scarrone Vigna Mandorlo Riserva DOCG 2012 14,5% Vol. 0,75l supply

Description

The Giacosa Fratelli winery has been run by the Giacosa family for over 100 years in beautiful Piedmont, Italy. In the 90s Maurizio and Paolo took over the winery, which produces one of the finest wines of the Langhe. Currently, 50 hectares of vines are cultivated. Naturalness as well as quality, the guiding principles of the family business, are paramount.

The Mandorlo vineyard in the famous Scarrone site is the flagship of the Giacosa Fratelli winery. The vineyard, which faces southeast, is very steep and the Nebbiolo vines are decidedly old.

After a short but intense maceration, this wine is aged according to traditional methods for 5 years.
