This Barolo shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and
elegant aromas which start with hints of cherry, plum and violet followed
by aromas of dried rose, vanilla, licorice, tobacco, cocoa, mace, menthol
and thyme. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack
and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, good tannins.
The finish is very persistent with long flavors of cherry and plum. A well
made wine. Barolo Sorì Ginestra ages for 24 months in barrique followed by
12 months of aging in bottle.
