Boroli
Boroli Barolo Classico is the estate’s benchmark Barolo, a traditional blend of their best Nebbiolo vineyards in Castiglione Falletto, capturing the commune’s mix of structure and fragrance in one bottle. East-, west- and south-west-facing clay-limestone parcels with touches of sand are harvested by hand in mid-October, then divided into micro-parcels so each plot is fermented and aged separately before blending. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel with 10–12 days on skins and a further 20–25 days of submerged-cap maceration, followed by at least 18 months in large Slavonian oak and a year in bottle before release, giving a supple but ageworthy frame. In the glass, recent vintages show bright red colour, scents of fresh wild berries, rose, sweet liquorice and gentle spice, with velvety tannins, good line and a harmonious, savoury finish – a classic, “all-round” Barolo that drinks well in its first decade yet has the stuffing to go further in a good cellar.

Nervi Conterno Gattinara Molsino Nebbiolo
Nervi is a historic, benchmark Gattinara producer with 28.5ha of highly-prized Nebbiolo vineyards across the appellation, in the northern part of Piedmont. The modern Nervi was founded in 1906 by Luigi Nervi. Molsino is one of the estate’s two top named sites -- a historic cru with mentions in town records as far back as 1471. The Nervi family ran the estate until the 1990s, and in 2011 it was purchased by investors who brought in the leading Barolo figure Roberto Conterno as a consultant. ‘Gattinara represents the purest expression of the northern [Piedmont] zones.’ Vino Italiano - David Lynch and Joe Bastianich In May 2018 Conterno purchased the estate. Gattinara was awarded DOC status in 1967, and upgraded to DOCG in 1990. Gravelly clay soils – remnants of an ancient collapsed volcano -- are rich in granite and other minerals including iron, zinc, magnesium and manganese. The terroir gives the wines a distinct minerality which sets them apart from the neighbouring appellations. Molsino matures for at least four years in large oak vats.

Massolino Parafada
Massolino produces this Barolo from the Parafada vineyard, a prestigious site in Serralunga d’Alba. The family has managed this plot since the 1950s, where the vines grow in marly lime soils at an altitude of 330 metres. This vineyard is one of the oldest in the estate's portfolio and is protected from winds, allowing the Nebbiolo grapes to reach full phenolic maturity. The result is a wine that reflects the power and longevity characteristic of the Serralunga commune. The winemaking follows traditional methods to honour the fruit. Fermentation and maceration occur in oak vats over approximately 20 days. The wine then matures for thirty months in large Slavonian oak casks. This slow ageing process in neutral wood allows the structural elements to integrate while preserving the site's distinct profile. The wine is released after additional bottle refinement to ensure stability and balance. The nose offers scents of rose, leather and dark fruit. On the palate, the wine is robust and broad, featuring flavours of cherry, liquorice and forest floor. Dense tannins provide a firm structure that supports a long, savoury finish. This Barolo is a significant choice for Australian collectors who value the prestige of Serralunga and require a wine with substantial cellaring potential. It represents an authentic expression of traditional Piedmontese viticulture.
