FEATURES
🏰 The 2020 Barolo vintage is considered fantastic, forming part of one of the best vintage trios in recent memory (2019, 2020, 2021). The growing season saw a mild winter and spring, followed by crucial rainy periods in May and June for hydric reserves, a mild summer, and cool September nights that aided Nebbiolo ripening. The wines are opulent, fruity, and expressive, with approachable tannins, offering both immediate enjoyment and longevity. Aromas are intense and pure, featuring red fruits like cherries and berries, complemented by floral notes of roses and violets. Secondary notes of spices, tar, earthy tones, liquorice, black cherry, leather, and undergrowth also emerge. The palate is broad, expressive, and round, with velvety, fine-grained tannins and a sustained body, balanced by lively acidity. 【Fantastic vintage, opulent and approachable with great longevity】. This Barolo is already attractive to drink but will benefit from two to three years of aging, with a potential drinking window through 2035.
🍴 Barolo, with its robust structure and complex flavours, is an ideal partner for rich meat dishes such as braised beef, truffle-infused pasta, or game. It also pairs beautifully with aged hard cheeses.
🥂 Perfect for a grand dinner, a special occasion, or a serious wine tasting. Its approachable nature also makes it suitable for enjoying with friends who appreciate fine Italian reds, perhaps after a few years in the cellar.
