| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nPerfumes: violet and roses, some nice fruits with cherry and raspberry hints.\r\nTaste: quite easy to drink, with a fine structure; elegant tannins together with a good freshness.\r\nFood Pairings: perfect for any situation, it can be wonderfully enjoyed from a simple rural picnic to the most silver screened aperitif; can easily stand important dishes as well.\r\nAbout Giovanni Rosso\r\nWe are a small, family-owned producer in the heart of the Barolo commune of Serralunga d\u2019Alba. We make only red wines, and our passion is for Barolo and its great grape, Nebbiolo.\r\nSince the 1890\u2019s the Rosso family has farmed vineyards in Serralunga d\u2019Alba, notably the Crus of Cerretta, La Serra, Broglio, Meriame, Sorano, Costa Bella, Lirano & Damiano. During the early 1980\u2019s Giovanni Rosso restructured the vineyards with the aim of growing the best fruit.\r\nGiovanni\u2019s son, Davide, studied Oenology and gained invaluable experience in France. In 2001 Davide, then 27 years old, took charge of the vinification & affinamento\/elevage of the wines with one goal in mind: \u201cWine should be a perfect copy of its\u00a0terroir\u201c\u2026 in this case from the slopes of Serralunga d\u2019Alba, among the finest soils in the world.\r\nThe Giovanni Rosso cantina (winery) is located in the hamlet of Baudana, just a couple of kilometres north of Serralunga d\u2019Alba village. A traditional family cascina, or farmhouse, it houses the fermentation, ageing, bottling and labeling facilities as well as the offices. |
