Barolo (Piedmont)

Nebbiolo
Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧

This Barolo shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals good personality with intense, clean, pleasing, elegant and refined aromas which start with violet followed by intense aromas of black cherry jam, raspberry jam, plum jam as well as aromas of toffee, licorice, dried rose, enamel and vanilla. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly alcoholic attack which tend to prevail, however well balanced by good tannins, good body and intense flavors. The finish is persistent with pleasing flavors of plum jam, black cherry jam and raspberry jam. A well made wine. This Barolo ages for 24 months in barrique followed by 14 months in bottle.
