Tasting notes

The Barolo Riserva is made with a special selection of the oldest Nebbiolo vines of the Rocche cru. This is a deep and layered Barolo, which benefits from time in the bottle in order to reach its full harmonious potential. As a younger wine, it offers a plush texture with smooth tannins and flavors of blackberry, black cherry, earth, cocoa powder, smoke, tobacco, and cologne. As an aged wine, the Vecchie Vigne shows a luminosity and freshness with plenty of floral qualities, along with fresh fruit and satiny tannins
