It began in 1858 after the unification of Italy, when the country’s first king, Vittorio Emanuele II, purchased this beautiful estate in Piedmont’s Langhe region.

Fontanafredda released their first Nebbiolo labeled as Barolo with the 1878 vintage. The estate enjoyed incredible prosperity until just after the turn of the century, but the proceeding Phylloxera plague, the Great Depression and the World Wars took their toll on the business and the property was sold to Italy’s oldest bank, Monte dei Paschi di Siena.Decades later in 2008, visionary businessman and Piedmont native, Oscar Farinetti, purchases a majority stake of the Fontanafredda estate and wineries, bringing new life into one of Italy’s most heralded properties.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-03T10:34:33-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-28T08:01:43-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","Nini2812","other_italian wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Fontanafredda","Region_Piemonte","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Nebbiolo"],"price":57295,"price_min":57295,"price_max":57295,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42650480083082,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1971 | Fontanafredda | Barolo","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":57295,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/47_07bb6bd1-f0ae-49c7-b15d-59a8a929c9a3.png?v=1672232722"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/47_07bb6bd1-f0ae-49c7-b15d-59a8a929c9a3.png?v=1672232722","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1971 | Fontanafredda | Barolo at CaskCartel.com","id":23859733364874,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":539,"width":225,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/47_07bb6bd1-f0ae-49c7-b15d-59a8a929c9a3.png?v=1672232722"},"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":539,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/47_07bb6bd1-f0ae-49c7-b15d-59a8a929c9a3.png?v=1672232722","width":225}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1971 | Fontanafredda | Barolo\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnificent wine.
