Grape variety: Nebbiolo 100%
Vinification: Giovanni Corino's Barolo Arborina is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, which come from south-east facing vines rooted in sandy-loamy soils in the commune of La Morra (CN). After the harvest, which yielded 55-60 quintals per hectare, the grapes were taken to the cellar for vinification. During the latter process, maceration of the must in contact with the skins took place for 5-7 days in rotary fermenters at a temperature of 25-30°C. Ageing took place in small French oak barrels, 35% new and 65% used. Afterwards, Giovanni Corino's 2018 Barolo Arborina rested for 6 months in stainless steel and another 12 months in Bottilglia.
Tasting notes: The Barolo Arborina from Giovanni Corino has a ruby red colour with garnet reflections. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits unfold, which meet balsamic notes of mint, vanilla and dark spices. These are joined by notes of undergrowth and roasted coffee powder. The palate is round and harmonious, with a fine tannin structure and a long, spicy and balsamic finish.
Food pairing: it goes well with mature cheeses and red meat.
Alcohol content: 15% vol.
