Barolo DOCG 1961 - Ciabot Mentin - Domenico Clerico is a rare piece of Piedmontese winemaking history, born from ancient vines in the heart of the Langhe. Made from Nebbiolo grapes, this cru expresses the most authentic essence of the Alta Langa territory, where the calcareous-clay soils provide structure and longevity. The aging, strictly in oak barrels, has given the wine a complex elegance and a deep harmony, bringing out aromas of withered rose, ripe cherry, tobacco, and sweet spices, accompanied by a smooth and silky tannin.
On the palate, it reveals itself as enveloping, with a well-integrated tannic texture and a freshness that surprises despite its age. Perfect for those who love great meditation wines, it pairs beautifully with robust dishes such as braised meats, game, and aged cheeses, a testament to an era when Barolo already expressed its unique and timeless potential.
A true historic gem, capable of exciting the most demanding enthusiasts with every sip.
