Cordero Di Montezemolo "GATTERA" Barolo
| Vintage: | 2017 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Not many families can boast they have done anything for 19 generations.Since 1340, the Cordero di Montezemolos have been passionately cultivating the Monfalletto property in the town of La Morra, a historical and very rare single-body 69-acre vineyard that covers both sides of the hill. This affords the family the luxury of selecting the best local varieties according to sun exposure, soil type and altitude. Today, Paolo Cordero di Montezemolo and his children Elena and Alberto are the benefactors of this great estate. Together they are combining their family's tradition and heritage with biodiversity and organic practices to preserve the land for generations to come and enhance the quality of what's inside the bottle. That quality is shining through!. From a single vineyard in La Morra, situated at the foot of a 150-year-old Lebanon cedar tree, on the highest Southwest slope of the Gattera cru. ".a beautifully fleshed-out and generous wine.delivers a rush of wild berry, dried blueberry, lilac, earthy truffle and powdered licorice. All these elements are especially bold in this hot and dry vintage, although the fruit never feels too ripe or overly concentrated." - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate |
