Domenico Clerico’s impact on Langhe winemaking has been significant and his legacy remarkable. Together with a small group of other producers, Domenico was part of the renaissance of Barolo and the Langhe during the late 1970s and early 1980s. He took these areas from relative obscurity to what they are today: a unique territory consistently producing some of the world’s best wines. Fruit for this Barolo di Monforte d'Alba is sourced from Domenico Clerico’s best vineyards in Ginestra, Mosconi and Bussia, in the region of Monforte d’Alba. The vineyards have an east/south-easterly aspect and altitudes range from 330 to 380 metres above sea level. The soils contain Marne di Sant’Agata fossil marl from the Tortonian period, and comprise of sand and clay loam with a high amount of active limestone. This Barolo is a vibrant ruby red in colour with garnet reflections. The nose delivers exceptional fruity, spicy and floral aromas. The palate is intense with sweet, silky tannins that lead to a rich, persistent finish
