The Chionetti Quinto Barolo Parussi is made from Nebbiolo grapes cultivated at 200m a.s.l. in the cru vineyard of Parussi, in the municipality of Castiglione Falletto. A medium to long alcoholic fermentation takes place in wooden vats, at moderate temperatures with maceration on the skins for about 20-30 days. The wine then spends time in large un-toasted French oak barrels. The wine does not undergo any filtration or stabilization.

Beautiful notes of rose petal, violet, crushed cranberry and with darker herbal tones of balsam and liquorice. An incredibly fresh and vibrant Barolo with incredible depth and razor sharp precision. Complex on the palate with strawberries and tobacco, blueberries and eucalyptus. Long, ethereal finish. Stunning wine, accessible now but has decades ahead of it.
