Discover the essence of Barolo DOCG with Casa Girelli Barolo DOCG, a prestigious wine that encapsulates the rich winemaking traditions of Piedmont's Langhe region. Nestled amidst the rolling hills and rugged landscapes, Casa Girelli has long been celebrated for its deep-rooted heritage and unwavering commitment to excellence. The unique terroir of Langhe, shaped by a temperate cold subcontinental climate and influenced by the protective embrace of the Alps alongside gentle currents from the Ligurian Sea, lends this wine a character that is both robust and refined.
Every bottle of Casa Girelli Barolo DOCG is a testament to centuries-old winemaking practices. The grapes, harvested at their peak in mid-October, capture the true spirit of the region’s climate and soil. Following harvest, the selected grapes undergo a meticulous 20-day controlled temperature fermentation, ensuring that each batch reaches the optimal balance of fruit and acidity. After fermentation, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, softening the natural acidity and adding a creamy texture to the blend.
The journey to perfection continues as the wine is then matured in oak barrels for 18 months. This aging process allows the wine to develop complex layers of flavour and aroma, with subtle nuances imparted by the oak that enhance its depth and structure. The result is a wine that is elegantly balanced, with a harmonious interplay of intense fruit flavours, a touch of spice, and a lingering finish that speaks to the timeless traditions of Langhe winemaking.
Ideal for pairing with hearty Italian dishes, rich cheeses, and robust meats, Casa Girelli Barolo DOCG is a distinguished choice for both collectors and connoisseurs. Embrace the legacy of Piedmont and experience the true soul of Barolo in every sip.
