What kind of wine is Barbaresco DOCG “Palás” 2021 - Michele Chiarlo

The Barbaresco DOCG “Palás” 2021 - Michele Chiarlo is a Piedmontese red wine of great elegance, produced from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. It originates in the heart of the Langhe, one of Italy's most renowned areas for producing age-worthy red wines. The "Palás" label represents Michele Chiarlo's vision: an authentic Barbaresco, with a modern profile yet faithful to tradition. It is a wine with a balanced body, well-integrated tannins, and a freshness that makes it enjoyable when young, but also capable of evolving over time.

Vintage Details

The 2021 vintage was characterized by balanced climatic conditions, with a warm but not scorching summer and a dry autumn that allowed for a slow and complete ripening of the Nebbiolo grapes. The harvest, which took place at the end of October, brought healthy, aromatic clusters into the cellar, with an excellent concentration of mature tannins and vibrant acidity. These elements give the wine a solid structure and great evolutionary potential.

Vinification and Aging

After destemming and crushing, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with a maceration on the skins for about 15-18 days: a process that allows for the delicate extraction of color, aromas, and tannins. This is followed by aging in oak barrels for about 12 months, during which the wine gains complexity and harmony, and then rests in the bottle before being released to the market. The result is a Barbaresco that combines finesse and power in perfect balance.
