La Morra, Barolo

Nicola and Stefania Oberto may very well put Berri on the map with their 2020 Barolo Berri. What a wine. Deep, soaring and wonderfully expressive, the 2020 is stunning in its beauty. Dark red/purplish fruit, orange peel, cinnamon, rose petal and lavender are all amplified in a vertical, soaring Barolo of magnificent intensity. Silky, polished tannins round things out in style. The 2020 is pure and sensual to the core - a total pleasure bomb.

WINEMAKING: vinification of grapes coming from La Morra, mostly MGA Berri and MGA Capalot (until 2017 vintage). Alcoholic fermentation happens in concrete and lasts around 12-14 days, followed by a 6-7 day post- fermentative maceration. Total skin-juice contact is around 3 weeks. Then malolactic takes place in oak and the wine ages for around 20 months in 52-hl and 25-hl oak barrels crafted by Garbellotto. After aging, the wine rests for some months in concrete, steel and plastic, before being bottled, usually in July-August of the year before the release.

While this Trediberri Barolo is usually a blend of different vineyards as it has always tried to represent the typical character of La Morra, the furthest west and highest in altitude villages in Barolo, its is not the case in 2019. The majority of the fruit is from theBerri Cru, with only about 4% from the Torriglione Cru. This still maintains the La Morra style of wine known for their drinkability and finesse. Think of it as a rare bonus to be a one-off single vineyard from a master in the making!
