## Summary

A Barolo DOCG from Nebbiolo, aged at least 3 years with slow refinement in oak barrels, 13.5% vol.

## Tasting notes

With age it takes on a garnet red colour with orange reflections and complex, intense aromas of undergrowth and ripe fruit. The initial harshness is softened by the slow, prolonged refinement in oak barrels, leaving it balanced, soft and velvety with notes of liquorice, leather and tobacco. A wine of great strength and intensity.

## Food pairings

Game, substantial roasts and cheeses, or on its own as a wine for contemplation.
