Barolo DOCG Sottocastello di Novello

Barolo DOCG Sottocastello di Novello - Piazzo

There is a place, south of the Barolo region, where the hills begin to look towards the Alta Langa.

Here the air is always in motion, the light shines brightly, and the vines grow on steep slopes. It is in this corner of the village of Novello, in the Sottocastello cru, that this Barolo is born.

It is a wine that reveals its terroir from the very first sip. It greets you with softness, with that smooth, enveloping sensation that invites you to drink more. Then, little by little, it opens up: the structure, depth and typical character of Barolo emerge.
What makes it special is its balance. It is not a wine that seeks to impress with power, but with harmony. It combines elegance and intensity naturally, without ever being excessive. It echoes the finesse of Barolo from La Morra, yet possesses a distinct personality, rooted in this specific hillside.
It is perfect for those seeking a refined and contemporary expression of Barolo.
