A Symphony of Aromas and Flavors

From the first pour, this Barolo captivates with its silky texture and mid-weight structure, balancing power with finesse. Aromas of sweet rose petals, red berries, and mint intertwine with hints of blood orange and cedar, evolving beautifully with aeration. On the palate, fleshy fruit meets finely grained tannins, creating a harmonious interplay of richness and refinement. The finish is tangy and sappy, leaving a lingering impression of inner-mouth perfume.
