  • Barolo Pressenda'. Beautiful Barolo made from 100% Nebbiolo; a grape that ripens late; the harvest usually takes place in early to mid-October. After hand-picking, the grapes go into special fermentation vats that continuously rotate the fermenting must. After fermentation, the wine is pumped over and matures for 12 months in barriques and then for another 18 months in oak (small) barrels.
    Story behind the label: The birds on the label come from the Langhe region. The artist responsible for the design of the label is a good friend of the family. 'Faset' is a region near the village of Barbaresco. 'Vigna Faset' literally means 'vineyard in the Faset region'. ' Pressenda ' literally means 'pressed'; grapes are pressed naturally by gravity.
  • Red wine - Powerful, complex and full . Dark red colour with light orange reflections. Varied aroma with primary and secondary aromas of ripe red fruit, eglantine and violets. Balanced mouthfeel with lots of depth and good fruit. Powerful structure with earthy nuances. Lots of length in the aftertaste.
  • Our sommeliers advise: Good to combine with game dishes with spicy notes and red fruit, grilled or baked rib steak with cooked vegetables and creamy sauce, Dry Aged red meat with spicy notes and rich BBQ dishes with spicy sauce. Definitely fantastic with dishes with truffles (the white truffle comes from this region) and dishes with mushrooms.
  • AWARD WINNING WINE: Robert Parker.com: 91 points (2004 vintage), Gambero Rosso 2009: 2 bicchieri (glasses)(2006 vintage).
