Gian Luca Colombo

Gian Luca Colombo: “I produce a classic Barolo from a blend of different individual vineyards located in Roddi, La Morra and Novello (from 2020 onwards). I believe that blending different Barolo terroirs gives a more balanced, complex and enjoyable wine.” Light, ethereal body, almost slipping into transparency, in a clear, slippery cranberry colour. Elegant in retronasal intensity. Very, very long, warm finish. On the palate entry it shows signs of being a typical Barolo, but after a few seconds the intensity of the variety grips the back of the tongue, the tannins at the front of the tongue begin to tap, peppery. On the nose: green shrubs, spring-like notes. A sui generis Barolo.

A structured wine with personality, with a rather appealing purple colour. On the palate it shows notes of black cherry and blackcurrant. It is voluminous, full-bodied and dense.

In the words of Gian Luca Colombo: “I want to produce a Pinot Noir that is very fine and elegant, and that's why the vineyards were planted in high-altitude areas, benefiting from a cool climate, such as the Village of Dogliani, the Village of Sinio and the famous Barolo Ravera subzone. Grapes from the different vineyards are harvested and vinified separately”

Attractive ruby colour. On the nose the fruit stands out, subtly wrapped in floral notes. On the palate it underlines a fine structure and depth. Fresh, with vibrant tannins.

Quoting Gian Luca Colombo: “It's the smallest DOC in the Barolo region. Made from an indigenous grape variety. It's a spicy wine, rich in pepper notes, a summer wine!”
