Gianni Gagliardo Barolo Monvigliero 2022

Poderi Gianni Gagliardo’s Barolo Monvigliero showcases Nebbiolo in an elegant, mineral-driven style, balancing fragrant red fruit with structure and complexity. Monvigliero is one of Barolo’s distinguished vineyard sites, while the family’s own Barolo story began in 1961, when Paolo Colla moved to La Morra to pursue his ambition of making the region’s great red wine.

Tasting Notes
Nebbiolo typically shows a bright ruby-to-garnet hue, and this wine’s first impression is its taut mineral character, recalling chalk and talc. Strawberry and cherry lead an expressive bouquet of lavender, clove and tulip, followed by subtle notes of balsamic bay leaf, lichen, damp dark earth and eucalyptus. On the palate, firm, gripping tannins frame fresh fruit and persistent mineral nuances, carrying through to a long finish. Its structure and freshness suggest good potential to develop in bottle, though the precise drinking window will depend on storage conditions and the vintage.

Production
The wine is made from Nebbiolo for Barolo DOCG Monvigliero in Piedmont. It undergoes 14 days of maceration and is aged for 30 months in a single previously used tonneau, allowing the fruit and site character to remain at the fore. Harvesting methods and further vineyard details were not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C with a little time in the glass. Its tannins and aromatic depth suit braised or roasted beef, lamb, game and dishes with earthy mushrooms; aged cheeses are another fitting match. Decant for about an hour if enjoying young, or open in advance and taste as it evolves.

Producer
Poderi Gianni Gagliardo’s roots lie in a family winemaking tradition in Piedmont dating to 1847. The Colla family moved from the area around Santo Stefano Belbo toward the region’s celebrated red-wine country, and in 1961 Paolo Colla settled in La Morra to make Barolo. The estate’s history reflects the family’s long-standing connection with the Langhe and its leading wines.
