The Barolo Brunate DOCG 2020 by Vietti is an extraordinary example of Piedmontese winemaking, originating from one of the most prestigious crus in the Langhe. The Nebbiolo grapes, used 100% for this wine, are cultivated in the Brunate vineyards located between the towns of La Morra and Barolo. These vineyards are characterized by calcareous-clay soil and a southwest exposure that promotes optimal grape ripening. The unique climate of this area, with hot summers and cold winters, contributes to the creation of a wine with great structure and complexity. The harvest is done manually, carefully selecting the best bunches. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, with a maceration of 3-4 weeks. Subsequently, the wine matures in oak barrels for about 30 months, further developing its aromatic and structural complexity.
