Red
Barolo
By Villa Giada, Asti, Piemonte, Italy
A Nebbiolo Barolo macerated about 30 days and aged at least 12 months in wood. Floral and cherry on the nose, balanced between acidity and tannin.
Tasting notes
Garnet red. Delicate floral aromas of rose and violet merging with cherry. Excellent balance of acidity and tannins gives an excellent body. Pleasant even when young, it gains complexity with age.
Pairs well with
Structured and complex dishes of red meat, game, braised meats and mature cheeses.
