Il Fondatore Carlo Deltetto
By Deltetto, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
Named for founder Carlo Deltetto, who produced the estate's first Barolo vintage in 1961. Deltetto is one of the few 'historic wineries' authorized to produce Barolo outside the denomination's area, vinified directly in the cellars in Canale.
Tasting notes
Garnet red color with ruby reflections; intense aroma with spicy notes and hints of rose and violet, lingering in the mouth with subtlety and elegant tannin.
Pairs well with
Starters and meat-based dishes. Good with bollito misto.
