Barolo Brunate 2017 Claudio Boggione

Variety: Nebbiolo 100%

Organic Green Experience.

Ruby red color with garnet shadows.

Intense and exciting, like all the great Barolo. The aromas are of ripe stem fruit, violet, forest, and aromatic herbs. Some spices, and the classic white peach. China and rhubarb make it even more complex. In addition to the quantity, the excellent quality of the scents should be rewarded.

On the palate it has an excellent volume, the result of a largely sunny vintage. However, the hardness is certainly not long in coming, and with a nice texture of tannins, and minerality, they balance the palate. Remarkable depth and persistence for a return of plum and cherry aromas in alcohol.

Hot vintage, which has brought well ripe fruit, consequently exuberant Baroli and Barbareschi ready in advance.

Barolo Brunate 2017 Claudio Boggione

The Brunate vineyard is intercommunal, because it is divided between the municipality of La Morra and Barolo. It has a total width of 28 hectares. Claudio Boggione is the owner of 2 hectares all in the municipality of Barolo.

Sun exposure: it is south south east, while the altitude varies from 230 to 300 meters above sea level.

The soil dates back to the Tortonian period with clay and the great presence of Marne di Sant’Agata Fossili and sand.

The plants have a variable age, with the oldest ones reaching 50 years.

Type of cultivation: Espalier with Guyot pruning.

Yield per hectare; it is around 50 hectoliters per hectare.

The harvest is done manually with careful selection of the grapes.

After arriving in the cellar the grapes are rasped and left to ferment without adding selected yeasts, in stainless steel containers with a wide base. This phase lasts from 15 to 20 days, depending on the year, with daily pumping over, to extract the greatest amount of color.

It is aged for a first time in large Slavonian oak barrels, and after decanting, the total maturation of 36 months ends in large-sized French oak barrels. After bottling without filtration, it remains in the bottle at least one year before marketing.
