Barolo Enrico VI DOCG

Barolo Enrico VI DOCG: elegance and depth from the heart of the Langhe

Barolo Enrico VI DOCG by Monfalletto s.s. Cordero di Montezemolo is a great red wine from Piedmont made from 100% Nebbiolo, an authentic expression of a prestigious cru and a production vision oriented towards complexity and longevity. It is a wine with an aristocratic profile, built on structure, aromatic finesse, and a slow evolution that makes it ideal for those seeking a Barolo with a strong personality.

Territory and wine style

The wine comes from a single plot of 2.2 hectares located in the Villero vineyard, in Castiglione Falletto, one of the most renowned areas of Barolo. The very calcareous soil, rich in microelements, with more compact clay, southern exposure, and an altitude of 300 meters above sea level, helps define an intense, deep, and long-lived Barolo. The harvest in mid-October and the limited yield strengthen the qualitative imprint of this label, which combines power, precision, and remarkable aging potential.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense garnet red color, typical of the great Nebbiolo from the Langhe. The bouquet is broad and refined, with a fine spiciness that recalls eucalyptus, licorice, and menthol, accompanied by ripe fruit such as cherry in spirit, blackberry, and plum, along with hints of violet and herbal notes. On the palate, it is powerful, fresh, and slightly acidic, with a structure built on tension and a long, persistent finish. The sip is austere, complex, and deep, with a balance that invites contemplation and waiting.

Recommended pairings

Barolo Enrico VI DOCG is perfect with rich and flavorful preparations, such as braised beef, hare in civet, wild boar, deer, roe deer, and other game. It also expresses itself best with dishes from the Piedmontese tradition, especially when enhanced by the White Truffle of Alba, such as duck ravioli or cardoon pie with fondue. It is a wine that requires important cuisine, capable of supporting its structure and extraordinary flavor depth.

Serve Barolo Enrico VI DOCG at a temperature of 16.5 °C. In a young bottle, an early oxygenation may be useful to favor the opening of the bouquet and make the sip more harmonious.
