A traditional Barolo, one of Prunotto’s historic labels, whose first vintage was produced in 1905 from the best grapes of the vineyards in the heart of the Barolo appellation. Aging takes place in large oak barrels of various sizes, further enhancing the extraordinary typicity of Nebbiolo in this region.
The 2017 growing season in the Barolo area will be remembered for hot temperatures and minimal precipitation. Winter was mild with limited snowfall, occasional rain showers in springs and high temperatures causing early vine development.
Prunotto's Barolo is garnet red in colour. The nose is complex and generous with pleasing aromas of rose petals, red fruit and spicy notes. The palate is full, well balanced with velvety tannins.
