## Tasting notes

Vigna La Rosa Barolo DOCG displays a deep garnet color, evolving with age to brick-orange, and offers an opulent nose of dried roses, cherry, truffle, and a hint of spice. The palate is exceptionally elegant and complex, with refined tannins, remarkable structure, and an incredibly long, nuanced finish.
