2021 Barolo Tortoniano, Michele Chiarlo MAGNUM 150cl

Tortonian Silk

Elegant, perfumed and quietly powerful, this magnum of Barolo Tortoniano shows Michele Chiarlo’s classic Nebbiolo style in a format made for the table and the cellar. Rose petals, red cherry, wild strawberry and cranberry sit beside juniper, fine spice, liquorice and a delicate earthy note. It has the unmistakable lift of Barolo, but the Tortonian soils give the wine a particularly graceful, silky edge.

On the palate, it is structured, long and beautifully composed, with firm but refined tannins, bright red fruit and a savoury mineral finish. The magnum format adds extra occasion value, making it ideal as a collector’s bottle, table centrepiece or age-worthy gift. This is a strong buy for customers who want serious Piedmont pedigree with elegance, freshness and the promise of graceful development.

For when : A special dinner needs a cellar-worthy Barolo magnum with presence, polish and prestige.

Pairs with: Porcini risotto, truffle pasta, braised beef, roast game, lamb shoulder, veal, aged Parmesan, Castelmagno or mature hard cheeses.

Barolo Tortoniano is one of Michele Chiarlo’s signature wines, named after the ancient Tortonian soils that shape its style. In magnum, the wine becomes more than a bottle to open: it becomes a centrepiece for a long meal, a thoughtful collector’s gift or a strong candidate for further ageing. It brings together classic Barolo fragrance, polished tannins and the confidence of one of Piedmont’s most established family producers.
