Description

Renowned the world over, this noble descendent of Nebbiolo wine has its roots in the Italian Unification. Many illustrious figures bore witness to its origins, like Marchesa Giulia Falletti di Barolo, Count Cavour and the first royalty from the House of Savoia. An austere, generous wine, quite ageable, which is considered a merit in Italian oenology.

Vineyard planted in one of the most beautiful places in the municipality of Novello. Wine country, and quite coveted.

Review
Medium-full red, bright, with a good purple tinge. Dried herbs and flowers, fresh earth and a hint of clean leather, a trace of tar, the palate intense and vibrant with bright acidity adding verve and tone to the wine. Long carry. Superb wine and easy to love now without further keeping, although it will certainly age beautifully.

Tasting Profile
palate

The bouquet has an overtone of greenness with hints of mountain hay and autumn leaves. Nuances of fresh fruit, small fruit, tobacco and sweet spices often join its decided vinosity. A well structured, very balanced wine in its acidity and tannicity. It keeps its vinosity as it comes round; its harmony, freshness, and value increase. It is a very ageable wine.
