About the Wine

Mirafiori 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.

It dates back to over 160. 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 

Casa 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.

Aging: 2 months in oak barrels.

Tasting Notes: 100% Dolcetto. Deep ruby-red with violet highlights. The fine, fruity bouquet has very persistent, clear-cut overtones of violet, blueberry, black cherries, and rosemary. The taste is agreeably dry, and its pleasant almondy aftertaste brings out its fullness with soft tannins.

Reviews

A bright, fruity red with black-cherry, lemon-rind and black-tea aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, fresh and clean. Drink now. ~90 James Suckling
