Ferdinando Principiano is a natural and traditional Barolo producer whose cantina is in Monforte and vineyards straddle Monforte and Serralunga. Farming is practicing organic, with his vineyards teeming with wildflowers, insects, and other wildlife. All fermentations are indigenous. Ferdinando is one of the very few producers in the Langhe who has been able to keep alcohols in check during global warming (under 14% for his Barolos).
The Barolo di Serralunga d'Alba is from two crus in the southern part of Serralunga: Boscareto and Lirano. 25-60 year old vines in limestone-rich soils. Fermentation for 25-30 days in stainless steel. Two years of aging in 1000-10,000 liter Slavonian oak botti. 13.5% alcohol.
