Barolo Annunziata Riserva・ACCOMASSO・2013

A winery run by Lorenzo Accomasso in La Morra. Annual production is about 12,000 bottles. They produce Barolo, Dolcetto, and a very small amount of Barbera from vines over 80 years old. They adhere to a classic style, such as long maceration for all grapes (50 days or more in some years for Nebbiolo), and long-term aging of Barolo in large barrels, which is released one year later than other winemakers. Due to its price and quality, most of the wine produced is purchased by regular customers from Switzerland and Germany who have been there for 10-20 years, making it difficult (almost impossible) to obtain even in Italy, and Barolo is known only to those in the know.
