THE PRODUCER: San Biagio Azienda Agricola


Aging: in oak wood for about two and a half years of which the first 18 months in second and third passage casks and the following year in medium-small sized Slavonian casks.

Maturation: in the bottle for 1 year in which the sweet floral and fruity notes blend with the more severe spicy and toasted ones. The more complex balsamic and ethereal timbres of licorice and goudron appear in the generous Barolo Galina.

Growing location: Barolo Galina is grown in Galina – La Morra  –  a continuation of the Bricco Chiesa sub-area. The area faces South-East and descends towards Roggeri and has a hilly, basin-like conformation, which provides prolonged daily exposure to the sun.

Vinification: Delicate destemming with light crushing and cold static maceration for 1 day is followed by alcoholic fermentation at 24°C for 20 days with frequent punching down. There is a subsequent splinting of the cap for a further maceration of a month during which the wine acquires volume by expanding the spicy and fruit sensations thanks to the important natural lysis of the yeasts. 

Nose: Intense hints of jam and fruit in syrup blend with spices with sweet licorice or slightly toasted tones of chocolate and caramel. Delicate notes of violet, rose and medicinal herbs follow.

Taste: elegant spicy notes with hints of black berry fruit jam and powdered chocolate combine with soft tannins giving a generous silky structure. The sensation of leather and Goudron is pleasant on the finish.
