Roccheviberti Rocche di Castiglione Barolo 2019 750ml

Organic. 100% Nebbiolo. Rocche di Castiglione is one of the smallest and most renowned vineyards of the entire Barolo area. Located at an altitude of 300-350 meters above sea level, this steeply-sloped, east-southeast-facing cru forms a long narrow strip divided into many tiny parcels. 25 days contact with the skins in stainless-steel tanks. The unique tanks trap the CO2 naturally produced in fermentation and then released periodically in targeted jets in order to break the cap of skins formed on the top of the must. This process is both extremely gentle and eliminates the need to for external power resources. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in steel and is then aged for 25 months in 25 HL French oak barrels.
