Fratelli Aresca Costareto

Barolo is known as the king of wines and the wine of kings, among the most famous Piemonte wines in the world. Aresca's Barolo follows a regulation requiring long maceration on the skins and maturation in large wooden barrels, an elegant wine with broad, intense perfumes and great structure, able to age for years but already enjoyable within months of release.
