Luciano Sandrone Le Vigne, 2017

Product Details

Product Description

As a tribute to the late Luciano Sandrone, our Wine Director, David Allen MW has been tasting through the estate's range. He concludes by trying a bottle of 2017 vintage La VIgne Barolo, a wine that is a blend of 4 vineyards from complimentary terroirs throughout the Barolo region. The Sandrone estate was founded in 1978, a year after after Luciano Sandrone had bought a small parcel of the Cannubi Boschis vineyard. The first vintages were made in the garage of his parents' house. During a trip to VInitaly in 1982 a US distributor offered to take all of Luciano's 1978 Barolo, an act that was the starting point for a long, slow period of growth as additional Cannubi Boschis plots and other vineyards were purchased. In contrast to Aleste, in 1990 Luciano first produced his la VIgne Barolo as a regional blend. The wine portfolio focuses on indigenous grape varieties of the region including Dolcetto and Barbera. In the winery, all fermentations are spontaneous through the use of indigenous yeasts. Grapes are vinified separately by variety as well as by individual plot to allow for more control in the blending process.
