Ferdinando began his conversion to natural winemaking in 2003, and nowadays his vineyards teem with wildflowers in spring. A wild and thick leaf canopy provides shade to the grape clusters; early picking tightens the acidity and lowers the alcohol. Whole clusters are stomped by foot and fermented without sulfur to give the fruit ease and suppleness. Barolo Serralunga is mostly composed of declassified Barolo fruit from' Boscareto' and a bit of' Lirano' in Serralunga; it's one of the best base Barolos made in an elegant style that I can think of, and for the price, it is a win-win!
