Red
Perno Riserva
By Cantina del Nebbiolo, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
The Riserva version of the estate's single-MGA Barolo from Perno, with extra time in wood and bottle.
Tasting notes
Deep red with garnet hues; red fruit, spice and a light mineral, toasted touch. Balanced fullness, acidity and fruit with a long finish and firm tannins. Extended bottle ageing brings out notes of wood and leather; built for long ageing.
Pairs well with
Important main courses such as braised meats, roasts and red meat in general; also good with aged cheeses.
