Barolo DOCG 'Enrico VI' 2016 (750 ml.) Cordero di Montezemolo
The Barolo 'Enrico VI' from Cordero di Montezemolo is born from a single piece of land (2.2 Ha) owned outside the municipality of La Morra. Located in one of the most historic and prestigious hills of Barolo, the Villero, in Castiglione Falletto, the vineyard of just over two hectares stands out for its very calcareous soil rich in microelements. A high-ranking, powerful, austere, and complex Barolo. A long-lived wine that matures slowly and steadily in the bottle. Great expressions even after several decades. Eternal.

THE WINE
The Barolo 'Enrico VI' by Cordero di Montezemolo comes from a single piece of land (2.2 Ha) located outside the municipality of La Morra. Situated on one of the most historic and prestigious hills of Barolo, the Villero, in Castiglione Falletto, the vineyard of just over two hectares stands out for its very calcareous soil rich in microelements. A high-ranking Barolo, powerful, austere, and complex. A long-lived wine that matures slowly and steadily in the bottle. Great expressions even after several decades. Eternal.
THE COMPANY
There have been 19 generations managing the Monfalletto estate in the municipality of La Morra since 1340, at the heart of the Barolo wine production area. The winery is located in the fabulous terroir of the Langhe, at the center of the Barolo lands, known for producing wines that have made Piedmont famous worldwide.
Even today, the estate of Cordero di Montezemolo owned by the Monfalletto family is entirely family-run. Giovanni Cordero di Montezemolo and his children Elena and Alberto are the protagonists of this millennium.
The historic single body, rare for the area, of 28 hectares of vineyard extends over all sides of the hill and has always been cultivated with different local varieties, selected and planted differently according to exposure to the sun, type of soil, and altitude.
A continuous search and experimentation with modern winemaking techniques, respect for the environment and biodiversity of the territory are the values that constantly guide this reality. The wines of Cordero di Montezemolo have been exported and appreciated worldwide over the years, perfectly representing the reality of the Barolo area.
