Description
The Manfredi Family has a long history in wine going back more than a century. Today it is a thriving cantina negociant with winery in Farigliano that adopts both modern and traditional practices to produce quality. true to style and varietal examples at winning prices from the Langhe in Piedmont. The other “secret” to the Manfredi skills are the relationships built on generations of trust, hence Aldo and Luigi have access to grapes of remarkable pedigree and quality from the likes of Gaja and Giacosa!! Rumour has it that the fruit in this wine comes from none other than the finest traditional producer, Bruno Giacosa ‘s vineyard (he is in his 90’s and was too preoccupied with negociating purchase of a coveted Rabaja Barbaresco vineyard during the 2010 harvest and made no wine and sold off all their fruit!)
2010 was the vintage of a generation for Nebbiolo in Piedmont. There is no better Barolo out there for the price. If new to the joys of Nebbiolo and the joys of ‘Tar n Roses’ this is the wine to snare and enjoy over the next 8 years. If drinking now decant this wine and enjoy with roast meat. Be quick stock is limited !
