The wine
Beautiful deep ruby red Barolo from Oreste from the fantastic Barolo year 2016! Ripe red fruit, herbs, violets and forest floor. The earthiness, standard with Baroli from Perno, is beautifully in harmony with the delicate aroma, the alcohol touch and the bitterness in the aftertaste. On the tongue beautiful sinewy tannin is perfectly balanced with the other sensations in the mouth but will get better and better with time. The fresh waxing is a nice character trait of the Barolo with Monforte as its origin. We are very pleased with that ourselves. Beautiful price-quality this one, one for now or for 15 years from now when it has reached full maturity!

ORESTE STEFANO
Small but nice certainly applies to this fantastic family business from the Langhe. Near Monforte in the hamlet of Perno, a cantina which produces the most delicious wines. They produce just 12,000 bottles annually and every bottle is a hit. After the death of her father Stefano, daughter Chiara and her husband Clemente built a small but high-quality arsenal of traditional Peimontese wines. Barolo, Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Arneis. Viticulture as it has been practiced in Piedmont for centuries, unknown small family businesses with jewels of wine.
After the late Nebbiolo harvest in the Langhe, they leave together for the south of Italy to harvest the olives from the Clemente olive grove, which has its roots in the south of Italy .
Pure, real and delicious!
