    • The Giovanni Manzone 2018 Barolo Bricat is made from Nebbiolo grapes that come from a small plot in the Gramolere vineyard, named after the small house (the Bricat house). The original core consists of vines that are over 50 years old and a small part of these Nebbiolo vines come from the old Rosé sub-variety and give the Barolo Bricat DOCG finesse and class. The orientation is southwest and the sandy limestone soil with layers of red clay gives the production of these vines a special character.

    The grapes are harvested by hand in mid/late October and then processed immediately. They then undergo spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, which extends over a month.

    After about 3 years of aging in large oak barrels and a few months of rest in concrete tanks, the wine is bottled during the waning moon period. The Barolo Bricat goes on sale approximately five years after harvest, with production limited to a few thousand bottles.

    This Barolo Bricat is a beautiful, noble wine. Dried herbs, pine, menthol, spices and licorice give the wine an aromatic complexity that harmonizes wonderfully with the red cherry fruit and dark berries. On the palate, the Barolo impresses with great freshness, structure and energy. The tannins are polished and the wine is beautifully balanced. The finish has a purity and is pleasantly long. Drinking window: 2023-2035

    The Manzone family runs a family winery whose origins date back to the 19th century. However, actual wine production only began in 1965 under Giovanni Manzone, the father of the current owner Mauro. Mauro then joined the company in 2005 after successfully completing his oenology studies. The family follows an artisanal philosophy, personally oversees all processes and practices nature-friendly agriculture without insecticides or fertilizers. The wine is made without intervention, with manual work from pruning to bottling. The vineyards with the renowned Castelletto and Gramolere sites, high and steep, produce concentrated and long-lasting Barolo wines.

    This Barolo is at its best when served with red meat, especially game, steak and dishes with truffles. It also goes excellently with meat sauce, risotto and medium-ripened cheese made from cow's and goat's milk.

    Das sagen die Weinexperten des Landes

    Antonio Galloni, Vinous:

    Manzone is one of the wineries in the Barolo area that have the potential to rise to the elite world. The wines from the last vintages were excellent!

    Antonio Galloni-Vinous Magazine:

    The 2018 Barolo Bricat leans towards full-bodied concentration (on the Nebbiolo scale), but falls slightly short with a leaner mid-flavor that is characteristic of this vintage. The wine offers a good mood with dark fruits, earthy or iron tones and spicy, toasted oak.
