Descrizione

Gian Carlo Burlotto’s Barolo DOCG Monvigliero is produced in Verduno, in the heart of the Langhe, from Nebbiolo grapes grown on the municipality’s highest hill. This wine elegantly expresses the character of its prestigious vineyard and native territory. In the glass, it shows a garnet-red color with orangey highlights. Its bouquet is distinctive, ethereal, pleasant and intense, while the palate is dry, full, robust and harmonious.

A 36-month maturation in wood adds complexity and structure. With time in the bottle, the wine develops its finest characteristics. Barolo Monvigliero is well suited to substantial meat dishes and aged cheeses with a pronounced flavor. It is best served between 18 and 20 °C, allowing its aromas, structure and balance to unfold gradually. The stated minimum alcohol level is 13.5% by volume. This is a structured and refined Barolo designed to accompany important meals and mature gracefully in the bottle.

Winery history

The Burlotto family has been tied to Verduno for generations: the family's wine production dates back to the early 20th century with Andrea Burlotto. Over time his children carried on the work in the vineyard and cellar; in more recent years Gian Carlo Burlotto has relaunched the estate, joined by his son Gianluca and, since 2022, by his daughter Claudia. The name Cascina Massara refers to the cru from which some of the estate's historic wines originate.

Production philosophy

An approach centered on the connection to the land: manual care of the vineyards, attention to grape quality, and respect for the characteristics of the cru. The aim is to convey in the bottle the expression of Verduno's soil and microclimate.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards located on the hills of Verduno, with the 'Massara' cru considered one of the most prestigious sites in the Barolo district; clay-limestone soils that influence the wines' structure and aromas.
