{"product_id":"barolo-giordano-1974","title":"Barolo Giordano 1974","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 1974 Barolo is a classic Italian red wine produced by Casa Vinicola Giordano S.p.A. The wine is made from Nebbiolo, a premier Italian grape variety that is deeply rooted in the Piedmont region and forms the foundation of the prestigious Barolo and Barbaresco appellations. Classified as a Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC), the wine was bottled directly in the production zone and has an alcohol content of 13.2 percent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginating from Piedmont in northwestern Italy, a region framed by the Alps, the wine comes from the specific area of Barolo, located in the Langhe hills southwest of Alba. The dramatic, steep hills of Langhe are often blanketed in thick autumn morning fog, which historically protects the vineyards and aids in the ripening process of the grapes. The 1974 vintage in this area is characterized as rustic and uneven. Piedmont is globally recognized for its strong focus on terroir and is also celebrated as a gastronomic center known for Alba white truffles and hazelnuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe producer, Giordano, has roots in the Piedmont and Langhe area dating back to the early 1900s. While its historical base remains in Piedmont, where classic appellations like Barolo are central to its identity, Giordano operates as a broader Italian wine house rather than a small single-vineyard estate. The company built its modern business model on direct sales, pioneering the mail-order distribution of Italian wine to private customers during the post-war era. This commercial structure has allowed the house to gather grapes from various vineyards, bringing Italian wine to a wide international audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Giordano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57284819452230,"sku":null,"price":2550.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-1012_0dbe0c03-e9da-4f22-89b2-65ade0ab8f54.jpg?v=1788781270","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.se\/en\/products\/barolo-giordano-1974","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
