Its bottle and simple, elegant label are the best calling card for a wine that is certainly not afraid to be brought to the most important tables. We are talking about an elegant Barolo DOCG by Pelassa, produced (obviously) from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. In this case of the three most common varieties, Michet, Lampia and Rosè. Mid-hill vineyards, located at an altitude of 350 metres above sea level, harvested by hand in the second half of October. Super-traditional vinification follows, with fermentation lasting 15-20 days at a controlled temperature. The must is stirred with the dèlastage system to maximise the extraction of colour and varietal aromas. Then, after malolactic fermentation, the wine is placed in Slavonian and French oak Tonneaux, with weekly topping up of the level and tasting trials. As it should be, the wine rests in the cellar for no less than 3 years, 2 of which in wood and one in the bottle. This is the only way to reach the right degree of maturity and in the glass one discovers a wine characterised by a beautiful garnet red colour, with an ethereal bouquet of tar and hints of dried flowers. In the mouth, it is rich, balanced and endowed with ripe tannins. Harmonious red, with great distinction and intensity. A wine of remarkable class, with exceptional richness and typicity. Perfect with game, it is simply excellent with truffles. To appreciate it at its best, in addition to the right temperature and the correct service, its producers also suggest tasting it while the Symphony No. 1 Op. 68 in C major by Johannes Brahms is playing in the room. Will it be true? Try it, to believe...
