The Source

While 'Filari Corti' may be Brandini’s Nebbiolo pop star, the La Morra Barolo is the range’s charismatic leader. Giovanna expresses a lot of passion for its place in their lineup, saying, 'The La Morra Barolo is our love-declaration to the village of La Morra! It’s the expression of the elegance, finesse, aromatics, and complexity that La Morra has to offer.' Crafted with more of a ‘drink a little sooner than later’ sense of immediacy and openness in mind, this flagship wine comes from four different areas in the upper western area of La Morra with a variety of altitudes and expositions. Every parcel has a unique terroir and are therefore fermented separately. The cellar work begins with full destemming and spontaneous fermentations. Once blended, the wines are then aged in 60hl Slavonian oak botte for approximately 24 months. La Morra is known to be more elegant among the main Barolo communes because of its greater sand composition in addition to some of the higher altitude sites; coupled with Brandini’s work to accentuate finesse above all makes for a unique Barolo that drinks very well young and will also age nicely, building on its youthful assets. This doles out cocoa-dusted cherries, dried summer herbs, light spices and crushed flowers on the nose, while the savory, concentrated palate is driven by ripe black cherry, raspberry compote, licorice and baking spice accompanied by fine-grained velvety tannins.
