93 / 100"Raspberry and cherry, almond, some dried flower perfume. It’s medium-bodied, plenty of red fruits, has a light grainy chew to tannin, and it’s also quite fresh and has a lovely ferrous quality to it, and some blonde tobacco savoury stuff and orange peel, with a finish of excellent length. This is very good indeed. Rated : 93 Points Drink : 2024 - 2030+"

Tasting Notes
Produced from vineyards with more western exposures, it makes a maceration that does not exceed 12-15 days on the skins. The primary fruit and the floral are well preserved thanks to a weighted use of large wood for about 1 year and to follow an additional storage in steel for over 1 year before bottling. Soft tannin and great drinkability.
Medium intensity ruby red in the glass. Wonderful perfume of ripe red fruits, strawberry and cherry. Incredible detail given the price point - a true example of 'introduction' to Barolo.
Match this with red meats, egg pasta and game.
