Description
Discover the essence of Piedmont's Barolo DOCG with the BAROLO - PECCHENINO LE COSTE DI MONFORTE, a compelling Italian red from Azienda Agricola Fratelli Pecchenino. Sourced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes in the Le Coste di Monforte vineyard, this wine captures the rugged beauty of its high-elevation site at 440 meters, where south-east facing slopes and medium-textured soils laced with whitish marls nurture vines planted decades ago. Harvested during the third week of October, these grapes translate the terroir into every bottle.
Pour a glass and admire its garnet red color, a vivid invitation to explore further. Inhale deeply to uncover a complex bouquet featuring hay, violet, tobacco, white pepper, wild mint, and liquorice—layers that evoke the rolling hills of Monforte d'Alba. On the tongue, expect a robust presence that builds to a taut, mineral-driven close. Dense tannins weave in silkily, striking a harmonious balance that lingers thoughtfully.
At 14% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, this dry red shines alongside hearty Piedmontese fare. Imagine it with fresh pasta dressed in truffle shavings or rich meat sauce, alongside roasted red meats, slow-braised cuts, or wild game.
