A complex and balanced red wine, made from Nebbiolo grapes handled and vinified by Manzone Giovanni, in Langhe land. The grapes come from a single vineyard, in the Castelletto mga, in Monforte d’Alba. The vineyard was replanted in 1999.
The exposure is east-southeast; the soil is clay and calcareous. The steep slope of the hill only allows manual processing. The manual harvest is made in mid/late october to ensure the perfect ripening of the grapes. The natural fermentation with the skins lasts 30 to 40 days with soft pumping over to guarantee a delicate polyphenolic extraction.
After about 3 years of ageing in casks and a few months in concrete tanks, the wine is bottled during waning moon. The first Barolo was produced in 1961. Few thousand bottles of Barolo Castelletto are produced and sold about 5 years after the harvest.
