Fontanafredda Barolo 1971
/ #57477777
Fontanafredda has been a prominent player in Piedmont for many years, with a particular focus on classic wines from the area. Barolo is made exclusively from Nebbiolo, and 1971 is widely considered a strong vintage in the region, characterized by good maturity and structure, which has given the wines significant aging potential.
The style of Fontanafredda is traditional, often with longer maceration and aging in large barrels, which supports the ability of the Nebbiolo grape to develop tertiary aromas over time. Barolo from this period typically expresses notes of dried roses, leather and undergrowth, especially from mature bottles like this one. The classification as Barolo also indicates that the wine has met the requirements of the area for, among other things, aging and alcohol content.
This vintage will be interesting for collectors with a focus on mature Barolo and wine lovers with an interest in Piedmont history.
