Description
Gigi Rosso winery sits in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of Barolo land. It carries the name of its founder Gigi, one of Barolo’s and Langhe pioneers. The next generation, Maurizio and his son Andreas are now managing Gigi Rosso winery. The passage to the second and third generation brings energy and new ideas to the business. As Gigi expressed in his own words: “I was born in the vineyards. I grew up in the vineyards. And the vineyards are my heart and soul. The Langhe are my home. This land gave me a very precious gift. As a thank you, every year, I harvest its fruits and look after them like a mother looks after her babies. They call me enologist, they say I’m a wine expert, they refer to me as a pioneer. But there’s only one truth: when nature speaks I listen. My land tells a unique story and I’m always listening”.

This Barolo is a warm, forward wine with a plush texture and prominent wood influence. Dried cherries, raspberries, and cranberries are accompanied by an abundance of spices, such as vanilla, cinnamon, clove, and toasted nuts. The tannins are firm and slightly drying. A bold Barolo for those who enjoy a more assertive wood presence. Drink 2025 - 2035 — Jeff Porter
