DESCRIPTION OF THE RED WINE BAROLO PRUNOTTO 2019
The Barolo signed by the Prunotto winery is a muscular Piedmontese red, which immediately announces itself as rich in aromas and ample sensations. Nebbiolo, a vine used alone to give life to this important Italian denomination, expresses itself on typical floral and fruity scents, capable of evolving with character and personality in the coming years. Yes, because this label, among its many advantages, also has that of being able to be forgotten in the cellar for the next few decades, to be tasted in a more complex version.
This Barolo di Prunotto comes from an autochthonous red grape variety which, within the Piedmontese Langhe, reaches memorable qualitative peaks, Nebbiolo. The grapes of this variety are grown in the area of ??Monforte, Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga, in vineyards with a subsoil made up of Sant'Agata marl. Once they arrive in the premises used for winemaking, the grapes are destemmed, and then fermented in steel containers, macerating for 10 days at a maximum temperature of 30 degrees, also carrying out the malolactic fermentation. We then proceed with the refinement phase, which develops initially for 24 months in barrels of different capacities, and then, after bottling, for another 12 months directly in glass.
Prunotto Barolo wine reveals itself to the eye with a very intense color, which recalls the hue of garnet. The nose is very satisfying, which is orchestrated on engaging notes where flowers and fruit stand out as protagonists, also aided by light spicy nuances. On the palate it has an excellent body, clear, with an energetic and vigorous sip, at times austere thanks to the evident tannic texture; ends with a persistent finish, characterized by a slightly bitter aftertaste. A great Piedmontese red, the result of the excellent work carried out by the Prunotto team, a cellar owned by one of the most important Italian wine families, the Antinori, which is confirmed as one of the reference realities in the entire Piedmontese wine scene.
