Description

This Barolo Riserva shows a deep garnet colour with warm brick-orange highlights. The nose offers dried cherries, rose, gentle spice, and subtle notes of leather and tobacco. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with refined, silky tannins supporting flavours of stewed red fruits, hints of truffle, and earthy undertones, finishing long, elegant, and structured.

Decanting: Stand upright for 2–3 days to allow sediment to settle. Decant slowly through a fine strainer and aerate 1–2 hours before serving at 16–18°C. Fragile corks are common; strain any fragments during decanting.
