Description
Bel Colle’s Barolo Riserva 10 anni is produced in Verduno, one of the most renowned areas of the Barolo denomination. This wine is obtained exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, grown in the Monvigliero and Boscatto vineyards on calcareous-clayey soils at altitudes between 300 and 350 meters above sea level.
The vinification involves a 15-day maceration on the skins, followed by fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine ages separately for 5 years in large oak barrels for each vineyard, Monvigliero and Boscatto. Subsequently, the wines are assembled and aged for a further 5 years in Allier oak barrels.
It has an intense garnet color. On the nose it offers an elegant bouquet of dried red flowers, ripe fruit such as raspberry and morello cherry, enriched by delicate spicy nuances. On the palate it is dry, robust and full, with velvety tannins and an austere structure.
It pairs perfectly with game, braised or roast meats.
