Origin

The Barolo Parussi is produced in the Piedmont region of Italy, specifically within the Barolo DOCG area, renowned for its prestigious Nebbiolo-based wines.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, a variety celebrated for its complex aromas and aging potential.

Production

  • Hand-harvested Nebbiolo grapes from the Parussi vineyard.
  • Traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperature.
  • Extended maceration to extract tannins and color.
  • Aging for approximately 24 months in large Slavonian oak casks.
  • Additional bottle aging before release to ensure optimal complexity.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep garnet red with brick hues developing with age.
  • Aroma: Intense bouquet featuring rose petals, tar, dried herbs, and hints of cherry and plum.
  • Palate: Full-bodied and structured with firm tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, persistent finish.
  • Ageing Potential: Excellent, capable of evolving gracefully over 10-15 years.

Food pairings

  • Rich meat dishes such as braised beef, roasted lamb, or game.
  • Mature cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or aged Pecorino.
  • Truffle-based dishes, especially those featuring white truffles from Piedmont.
