Tasting note
- Character
- A Nebbiolo of aristocratic rigour, revealing the grandeur of Barolo in a compact format. The half bottle concentrates the essence: dark cherries, dried roses, tar and undergrowth. Firm tannins, vibrant acidity – a wine that rewards patience yet already captivates today.
- Terroir & Origin
- From Castiglione Falletto, one of the historic heartlands of the Barolo zone at 350 metres above sea level. Vietti owns 75 hectares across the region’s most prestigious vineyard sites – Brunate, Lazzarito, Ravera, Cerequio, Monvigliero, Villero. Ever since Alfredo Currado became the first to vinify individual crus separately in 1961, the estate has stood by the conviction that each vineyard has its own distinct voice.
- Grape Variety & Vinification
- Nebbiolo – late-ripening, light in colour, yet of unmistakable aromatic depth. This grape, once hailed by Currado as the ‘King of Piedmont’, reaches its most majestic expression in Barolo: restrained fruit, floral notes, earthy complexity. Vietti has worked with this variety since 1873; four generations of craftsmanship define the style – respect for tradition coupled with the courage to pursue precision.
- Food Pairings
- The compact bottle size is ideal for intimate occasions. A classic match with Brasato al Barolo, Tajarin with truffle or saddle of venison. Mature Parmigiano or Castelmagno also find an equal partner here. The wine’s structure calls for protein and fat – only then does it reveal its full elegance.</
