Tasting Notes
Medium carmine garnet colour, broad ochre rim. Delicate nuances of orange and mandarin zest on the nose, sweet spices, and a fine touch of dried plum. Full-bodied, very rich in finesse, still fresh, powerful texture, silky, vivid tannins, a Barolo of convincing finesse, very good length, a perfect mature Piedmontese of the extra class.
