Barolo 'Monvigliero' by Vietti is made from the homonymous hill which is historically recognized as the most important cru of Verduno and one of the most prestigious in the entire Barolo production area. Vines with an average age of 50 years. 2018 is the first vintage of this very important Vietti cru. Aging for 24 months in oak barrels. An unmistakable elegance stands out on the palate, strawberry, rose, cherry. The tannin is round and silky and persistent at the same time; great harmony and balance. On the finish, fresh spicy notes, fine and light. Barolo Monvigliero has all its distinctive characteristics in its aromatic complexity and gustatory depth. A great Barolo, to be left in the cellar to reach its maximum splendor in a few years.

For four generations the Vietti family produces wines in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of the Langhe. At the beginning of '900, the son Mario began selling Barolo they had been manufacturing, focusing the company exclusively winemaking family activity. Since the '60s is the daughter Lucia, with her husband winemaker Alfredo Conrad, to carry on the work of the Vietti winery, concentradosi increasingly on a high quality production. Alfredo Conrad was the first to select and vinify grapes from single vineyard concept at that time radical, but now applied to almost all companies that produce Barolo and Barbaresco. The other great Alfredo pioneering vision was to enhance the Arneis, native vine long forgotten by the producers of the zone: the winery started to vinify in purity, and so did other manufacturers later, bringing today Arneis to be the most important grape white grape of the area. Today Vietti is considered one of the greatest Barolisti semi-traditional, doing a masterful use of both barrels of barrels that.
