Burlotto Barolo 2014 DOCG 0.75l

The Burlotto Barolo 2014 DOCG 0.75l presents itself as the most mature and thoughtful expression of a historic Langhe winery, capable of transforming a vintage into an elegant interpretation of the Verduno terroir and its surroundings, a window onto the Barolo that originates in the Langhe and Piedmont region, where Nebbiolo expresses a refined verticality and a depth of soul. Burlotto is a Piedmontese winery with an authentic feel, rooted in its vineyards, slow work, and respect for the seasons: a family of winemakers who have built a reputation over time based on precise grape selection, careful barrel aging, and the ability to let the wine speak for itself without forcing it. The production philosophy emphasizes limited intervention, a management approach that begins in the vineyards and continues through to the cellar with balanced hands and patience: low yields, gentle pressing, controlled fermentation, and aging in previously used oak barrels, designed to extract elegance without overdoing it with oaky overtones. Compared to other producers with similar styles, Burlotto's 2014 Barolo stands out for its aromatic profile, revealing notes of ripe cherry, dried rose, thyme, and a minerality reminiscent of its terroir. The nose intertwines nuances of truffle and subtle pepper, with a tannic texture that appears smooth and ready to evolve over time. On the palate, the wine offers a restrained yet distinct body, a graceful balance between sweetness and acidity that allows it to gain depth over the years, maintaining a tension that accompanies each sip toward a long, clean, and contemplative finish. Within the Burlotto range, this 2014 Barolo represents the most authentic tradition, capable of conveying the specificity of the cru and the season to the glass, offering the taster not just a drink, but a story of vineyards that have preserved their identity for generations. In closing, the Burlotto Barolo 2014 DOCG 0.75l is a choice that responds to the STELT positioning: a proposal that elects the presence, the dignity of the terroir and longevity as criteria of value, offering a contemporary interpretation of a classic without sacrificing the sincerity of those who work the land with respect and attention.
