Temperatures picked up again in mid-March, accelerating the plant life cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, the cold temperatures returned in early April with icy winds that channeled through the valleys and affected the lower vineyards, especially in the Barbaresco area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther Barbaresco vineyards affected by frost recorded minimal losses of 5%. Our Barolo vineyards are located at higher altitudes and survived the frost unscathed. The summer rolled out dramatically with a bright and windy start, hot and violent midseason, characterized by frequent thunderstorms, and ended hot and dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile both benefited from thunderstorms that cooled the land, powdery mildew became a real threat in Barbaresco in July. A redeeming rainfall came at the end of August, refreshing the Barbaresco and Barolo vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2021 was a late vintage, tending to be dry but cool, resulting in wines of great volume and richness marked by savoriness and length, generous even on the nose, with intense and complex aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two varieties ferment and macerate separately for three weeks. After the malolactic fermentation, they are blended and then aged in oak for 12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA beautiful violet color atypical of Nebbiolo but reflective of the 2021 vintage where fullness and richness are even present to the eye. The wine has bold notes of blackberry, cherry, blood orange, and bergamot with a touch of flintiness. Medium-structured with lots of juiciness and harmony on the palate all lead to well-balanced acidity and tannin structure with a long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"67Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49871124267291,"sku":"210000058400","price":84.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/1789\/4171\/files\/kolqq0cwiwgdrvzhmnln.jpg?v=1772555888","url":"https:\/\/67wino.shop\/products\/gaja-sito-moresco-rosso-langhe-2021-750ml","provider":"67","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
