Barolo, this wine just the name inspires a certain respect . Not by chance that is considered the king of wines.

The Barolo is certainly a wine that represents the best in Italian wine heritage in the world, real pride for all those who, for generations, are involved in the production of wine issues, reaching levels of absolute excellence.

This magnificent red wine is produced in Piedmont and ha eats the city center of Barolo, including other cities such as Castiglione Faletto and Serralunga d'Alba and part of Cherasco, Diano d'Alba, Grinzane Cavour, La Morra, Monforte d'Alba, Novello, and Verdun Roddi in the province Cuneo.

For production of this wine comes from the Nebbiolo grape used 100% : the nebbiolo is a grape variety, closely connected to this earth, and that's because this grape not give positive results out of Piedmont and Lombardy.

This wine must have an alcohol content of at least: 13%

better time to be consumed: on average 10-20 years , but may be a longer period.

Currently many farmers adopt new principles of production and aging, and in some cases even a "philosophy" than in the production of this wine.

1. Who adopts the principle of "tradition" prefer a more robust and tannic wine, long aging in oak barrels large. Using the traditional way wine is produced with a long maceration process, ie the shells are in the Nebbiolo contact with the wort in the fermentation for 20 days or more - this is done to extract enough tannin to wine. The result is a very strong wine, tannic and robust, it needs more than ten years to develop and find their balance;
2. Other producers are focusing on "innovation", using small barrels, with the aim of producing a wine a bit smoother, with a considerably shorter time. The contact period of the grape skins during fermentation is smaller, usually a week and time of aging in oak barrels is less. Wine is ready to drink sooner, but it has the longevity of the traditional.

Today we can find doi kind of Barolo for sale, one produced with the traditional method and the other with the modern method.

The Barolo is a wine DOCG (Denomination of Origin Controlled and Guaranteed) since 1980.
