2019 Bruna Grimaldi Barolo "Bricco Ambrogio", Piedmont, Italy
ABOUT THIS WINE
Bricco Ambrogio is a Barolo of great elegance. This plot has a perfect exposure to the sun and a hot microclimate where Nebbiolo clusters are always picked earlier and can differentiate themselves in the rainier and cooler vintages.
Soil: very steep with grey-blue marls arranged in homogeneous layers, clay in medium quantity, good presence of limestone, rare presence of sand. Soil composition: Marne di SantâAgata Fossili. Manual harvest.
In the months before the harvest, clusters are selected carefully and are harvested when the phenolic ripeness is at its best. This wine goes through the single-vineyard vinification, temperature-controlled fermentation with a long skin contact maceration that lasts about 20-30 days, sometimes with submerged cap. Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel and concrete tanks. The wine ages in big Slavonian oak barrels and French oak tonneaux for about 24-30 months. The wine is aged in bottle before being released.
