Barolo wine tasting nelle Langhe: degustazione vini e visita in cantina
The article presents a Langhe wine tasting as an encounter with wine, landscape and the people responsible for production. A structured visit begins in the working cellar among fermentation tanks, oak vessels and maturing bottles, then progresses from younger wines such as Dolcetto and Nebbiolo d’Alba toward recent, MGA and older Barolo releases. Guided analysis considers colour, aroma, tannin, acidity and persistence, often followed by local foods.
Practical advice covers advance booking, cellar tours, purchasing and planning a multi-winery itinerary. Novello is introduced as a hilltop commune at about 471 m, characterized by Tortonian calcareous-clay marl, predominantly south and southwest exposures and useful day–night temperature differences. Le Strette is presented as a family-run, artisanal destination founded by Mauro and Savio Daniele, offering five Barolo labels together with Nas-cëtta, Nebbiolo d’Alba, Dolcetto and Barbera.
