Winemaker Notes
The Aldo Clerico farm was born in 2004, when Aldo decided to apply the experience acquired after working for some years among the most prestigious wineries in Monforte d'Alba. He takes over the management of the family business, renovating the old cellar and building a new part to embark on the path of winemaking and subsequent refinement of the wines.
The vineyards, 6 hectares owned by the company, always cultivated with passion and skill by the grandfather and parents, are now cultivated by Aldo who represents the third generation with renewed passion and rigorous respect for the territory. Mostly located in the municipality of Monforte d'Alba, in the heart of the Barolo area and to a lesser extent in Monchiero, the Dogliani production area.
The result is a new creativity.
Fine wines, with great structure, long lasting. Good-bodied, fruity, velvety and undisputed quality wines.
A great wine comes from the right composition of the soil, from the southern exposure of the vineyards and from an ideal microclimate, requirements which these vines certainly enjoy. But the care dedicated to the maintenance of the vineyard and above all the sacrificial thinning of the bunches in the period before the harvest are equally important. An operation necessary to guarantee the grapes a correct and complete ripening.
