  A Symphony of Ragged Richness: Gigi Rosso Barolo Trecomuni DOCG

Born from the ancient Piedmontese winemaking tradition of sourcing grapes from three unique terroirs, Gigi Rosso’s Barolo Trecomuni DOCG is a living testament of the land’s bounty and a wine lover’s dream. Each of the three communes - Serralunga d’Alba, Monforte d’Alba, and La Morra - contributes a singular character to the wine, creating a harmonious blend. Serralunga d’Alba offers structure and longevity due to its clay-rich soils. Monforte d’Alba endows the wine with complexity from its clay and limestone-rich soils. Lastly, La Morra gifts the wine with freshness and fruitiness because of its sandy soils. At the heart of this wine is the company’s dedication to preserving an old-world winemaking tradition and a commitment to delivering an exquisite Barolo that keeps sommeliers and wine enthusiasts captivated.
