Barolo Castiglione Falletto is a true reflection of its local terroir: it unfolds a fresh and vibrant bouquet, dominated by pure citrus notes of orange peel and grapefruit, interwoven with more complex hints of rose petals and subtle spicy nuances. On the palate, it is powerful and balanced, with a solid structure emphasized by mineral notes that reveal themselves on the finish.

climate

Barolo has a warm, maritime climate, characterized by warm, pleasant summers, cool, but rarely truly cold, winters, and relatively low rainfall. Summers in Barolo are pleasant, with average daily temperatures ranging between twenty-five and thirty degrees Celsius.

soil

This Boroli is a new project based on the parcel selection of municipal vineyards that have been classified over the years. Castiglione Falletto, located in the heart of the Barolo region, has a higher proportion of east-west-oriented vineyards than the surrounding villages. This gives its wines a unique character, with a perfect balance of power and elegance. The vineyards face east, west, and southwest, and the soil is clay-limestone with traces of sand.

vinification

Harvest takes place around mid-October, with the grapes collected in small crates. The vineyards are divided into micro-plots based on the ripeness of the bunches. Harvests are carried out separately, allowing for the production of multiple cuvées within each plot. This separation is maintained throughout the vinification and aging process. Fermentation of all micro-cuvées takes place first in stainless steel tanks, followed by submerged cap fermentation: the grape skins are kept submerged approximately 40-50 cm deep at a controlled temperature for a medium to long period of up to 30 days. After at least 18 months of aging in wood, the various micro-cuvées are expertly blended. The wine is bottled in June and July and remains in the bottle until the following year before being released.
