2021 is a “surprising” vintage for Barolo, which, with most of the Nebbiolo grapes in the cellar, but still in the middle of the harvest, literally collects the fruits of a year charaterized by climatic extremes.
First of all the spring frosts, which fortunately have not affected a flowering in the early stage, then the rains in June, and finally the total summer drought: difficulties in the midst in which the vine has been able to maneuver, giving to the eight historic producers reunited in the Deditus Assocation (Azelia, Cordero di Montezemolo, Michele Chiarlo, Pio Cesare, Poderi Gianni Gagliardo, Poderi Luigi Einaudi, Prunotto e Sandrone Luciano), an amazing year.
