The Barolo Prapò by Ettore Germano encapsulates the splendor of Nebbiolo grapes within the illustrious Serralunga d'Alba terroir. Esteemed for its unique blend of marl, clay, and sandy soils, this vineyard's location is pivotal, offering the vines supreme exposure and altitude. At the end of a traditional but precise vinification there is a long fining ageing in large oak casks over 24 months. This regimen imparts the wine with a striking garnet red color, complemented by soft orange tinges, showcasing its elegance and depth. Aromatic layers unfold with an opulent bouquet of dried fruits and sweet spices, echoing the sandy soil's contribution to its rich aromatic palette. The palate is met with an impeccable balance, where robust flavors and refined tannins converge, delivering a smooth, lasting finish that revisits the wine's aromatic intricacies. This Barolo is ideally paired with complex dishes such as roasted lamb, game, and mushroom risotto, making it an exquisite choice for elevated dining occasions or to enrich moments of togetherness.
