The wine

Imagine an autumn sunset reflecting on the hills of Piedmont. This Barolo Serralunga d'Alba by Aldo Clerico is the liquid incarnation of that moment. Produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, this wine is a sensory journey through the land it comes from. Grown using the Guyot system, the wine is a tribute to tradition and craftsmanship. At first glance, the wine presents itself with an intense ruby-red color, almost as if it's trying to tell the stories of the Serralunga d'Alba Cru vineyards. On the nose, it's a mosaic of aromas: ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and a touch of wet earth. In the mouth, it's an explosion of balanced flavors that meld into a long and persistent finish. Ideal for pairing with red meats and aged cheeses, this wine is a perfect companion for a romantic dinner or an evening among friends.

The Winery

The Aldo Clerico winery is located in Monforte d'Alba in the heart of Barolo. It was born in 2004 when Aldo Clerico decided to make use of his experience, gained after years of work in the most prestigious wineries of Monforte, by opening his own farm. The hectares owned are 6, mostly located in Monforte d'Alba and a smaller part in Monchiero. The careful management of the vineyard together with the modern winemaking techniques adopted in the cellar give life to fine and quality wines, with an out of the ordinary elegance.
