Barolo or Barbaresco? It's the million-dollar question in the world of Italian wine, and today, we're here to help you choose your side. Here's the lowdown:
Barolo – the undisputed champion of Italian wine excellence. Known as the "King of Wines," each bottle is like a time-traveling storyteller. Aged for a minimum of three years in oak barrels and an additional year in the bottle, this wine is true Italian royalty.
Barbaresco – Often referred to as the Queen of Italian wines, Barbaresco is a top-notch Piedmont beauty. While it may not hold the title of "King," it's incredibly approachable and offers the best of both worlds.
Vite Colte Winery is one of the largest cooperatives in Piedmont and a global standout. Originally known as "Terre da Vino," it rebranded to "Vite Colte" in 2016 to make waves in the wine world. With 180 skilled growers and 300 hectares of vineyards, Vite Colte is a force in Barolo and beyond. Their boutique winery, Scrimaglio, benefits from a newly constructed, modern facility.
What sets them apart? Exceptional terroir, skilled members, and cutting-edge science all contribute to producing top-quality wines.
