## Summary

Barolo from the commune of Serralunga d'Alba, aged two years in wood plus a year in bottle.

## Tasting notes

A fine red with garnet shades. The nose is rich, austere and deep: withered violet and undergrowth, typical of Nebbiolo, in expressive balance with the balsamic notes of the territory. Warm entry that develops broad and enveloping; the well-present tannin is soft and gives a pleasant length. Enjoyable now, and expected to give a fine expression of Serralunga in the years to come.
