Barolo is one of three of the most famous Italian wines, named after the town of Barolo. This wine is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, including this very typical Erbaluna Barolo from the town of Montforte d'Alba, which we visited several times, including several times with our customers.

Organic wine processing, Erbaluna, Barolo

The grapes are harvested manually from mid October to the beginning of November. The fermentation is done in large oak barrels and lasts 4 weeks. After that, the wine ages for at least 24 months in oak barrels with a capacity of 225 to 600 liters. The wine is repeatedly decanted to separate the solid components (mud). In this way, the wine clarifies without being filtered.
