ADDITIONAL NOTES:

More than one hundred hectares of certified organic farming in the heart of the Langhe are not a few. Yet this is the miracle of Fontanafredda, a historic company in Serralunga d'Alba whose foundation dates back to the mid-nineteenth century. A project, led today by Oscar Farinetti, which looks to history but above all to the future, with an extraordinary sensitivity for packaging, marketing and distribution. In short, for Made in Italy in general.

The protection of the landscape here is one and the same with the protection of a cultural and receptive heritage, so much so that the estate includes a theatre, which hosts many events, an inn, a starred restaurant and a relais. The farm relies on a large number of contributors, followed by an astronomical level oenological staff.

Naturally, the Barolos stand out. Serralunga is crunchy, drinkable, and above all of an extraordinarily competitive price. The Property in Fontanafredda is also opulent but tantalizing, with austere but unbeatable tannins at the table. The selections, first of all the La Rosa, represent the excellence of the territory.
