Tasting Notes
Colour: Deep garnet with rich orange-amber hues at the rim, typical of an aged Barolo that has matured beautifully over time.
Nose: A complex bouquet of dried roses, violets, and earthy truffles. Secondary aromas of dried red fruits like cherries, raspberries, and plums, with underlying notes of leather, tobacco, and cedar. Hints of spice (cloves, cinnamon) and balsamic nuances add layers to the fragrance.
Palate: Silky and well-structured, with finely integrated tannins that have softened beautifully over the years. Flavours of dried red berries, leather, tobacco, and forest floor evolve on the palate, with subtle hints of liquorice, balsamic, and a touch of tar. The wine retains a fresh acidity that balances its depth and richness.
Finish: Long and elegant, with lingering notes of dried fruit, spice, and a fine minerality that showcases the wine’s terroir. The finish leaves an impression of refined complexity.
