Vinification of La Ginestra Barolo DOC 1.5l Magnum by Paolo Conterno

The vinification of La Ginestra Barolo DOC 1.5l Magnum begins in the vineyard. The grapes come from selective sites within the Barolo region, where the soils are rich in clay and limestone. This combination allows for optimal ripening of the Nebbiolo grapes. Harvest typically takes place in the second half of October. Only the best grapes are hand-picked and carefully sorted.

The vinification takes place in traditional, temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine is transferred to large oak barrels, where it matures for at least 24 months. This method contributes to the development of complex aromas and gives the wine its structure and depth. Following this, the wine ages for additional months in the bottle before hitting the market. This careful and respectful handling throughout the process ensures the excellent quality for which Paolo Conterno is known.
