Sordo, Barolo Gabutti Riserva 2007

A vineyard planted in one of the subzones, defined as “top of the line, with high quality characteristics, among the most interesting and prestigious of the municipality of Serralunga d’Alba.. From vines of 35-50 years old grown at altitudes of up to 250-300 metres. Once selected, the grapes undergo crushing and destemming. Vinification with fermentation in stainless steel temperature controlled vats with long submerged-cap maceration for between 4 and 7 weeks. Natural malolactic fermentation at temperature 20°, the wine is then transferred into stainless steel for 2-4 months. The wine is then transferred to large Slavonian oak barrels for 24 months. Before bottling the wine spends a further 6 months in stainless steel for refinement.

Sordo was founded in 1912 by Giuseppe Sordo, the present owner’s grandfather, and is now under the guidance of its third generation, Giorgio Sordo, with his daughter Paola by his side. Situated in the district of Castiglione Falleto and overlooking the slopes of La Morra, Sordo is unique in that it bottles 8 Barolo Cru wines, the only producer able to do this in the entire region.
