BACKGROUND
Since 1858, the Fontanafredda Estate & Winery has been instrumental to the growth and international awareness of Barolo, while championing sustainability and community engagement in the Langhe region of Piedmont. Under the lead of visionary entrepreneur, Oscar Farinetti, Fontanafredda has built a portfolio of wines that express the depth and diversity of the Langhe, produced from grapes that are farmed from organic and sustainably managed vineyards. Since the 2018 harvest, Fontanafredda is the largest certified organic winery in Piedmont.

TASTING NOTES
Characteristic aromas of Barbera, with a flowery and fruity bouquet. A full, persistent taste which is nicely dry and velvety. Drink young, or one-two years after harvest. Excellent wine to drink thoughout the meal, it can pair with a variety of flavors and dishes.
