After fermentation, the new wine is left to decant (deposit) for a few days and then it is immediately racked into wooden barrels, where it remains to age for at least two years. In the summer of the third year, the wine is filtered and bottled, and after at least six months of aging in the bottle, the Barolo is ready for consumption.
