Barolo is meant to age. This stunning 19-year-old Barolo is at its perfect drinking window. It has developed an exceptional character and complexity. With every sip, this aged Barolo reveals the culmination of years of maturation, offering a truly unforgettable tasting experience for those fortunate enough to indulge.\n\nMirafiori Winery is a 300-acre Bionatural Reserve in the beautiful Serralunga d’Alba, at the core of the renowned Barolo region, right there with iconic producers like Giacomo Conterno or Roberto Voerzio, where Barolos can often exceed $300.\n\nIt dates back to over 160 years. In the 19th century, a nobleman with a modern vision, Emanuele Alberto Guerrieri, Count of Mirafiore, son of Italy’s first King, embarked on a remarkable wine journey. He founded Casa E. di Mirafiore, a winery that aimed not only to craft exceptional wines but also to create a thriving village. This village, a real community, housed 250 people, all employed by the winery. Even today, 15 families call it home. Every corner of this place tells a unique story, making it Italy’s first storytelling village.\n\nCasa E. di Mirafiore has always been ahead of its time. Since 2018, it has proudly held the title of an Organic Estate. With vineyards in the Barolo and Fontanafredda subzones, it exclusively produces wines from its estate-owned vineyards, including the renowned Barolo DOCG crus, Lazzarito, and Paiagallo.\n\nThis Barolo is crafted from carefully selected grapes cultivated in estate vineyards located in the villages of Serralunga d’Alba and Barolo.\n\nAging: 5 years of maturing before it is released. 3 in medium and big size oak barrels, 1 year in large concrete tanks, and 1 in bottle.
