Product Details

The Barolo embarks on a rather straightforward performance initially, and the wine gains in complexity as it opens in the glass. The bouquet is elegant and tapered with wild berry, spice and licorice. It is ample in terms of mouthfeel, delivering medium texture and depth. Classic and elegant are two appropriate descriptors.

‘Alessandria's Barolo is gorgeous. Sweet dark cherry, kirsch, cinnamon, rose petal, mint and orange peel lead into a core of soft, open-knit fruit. Silky tannins and soft contours add to its overall appeal. The aromatics alone are beguiling, but it is the wine's overall balance that is most impressive of all.’ - Antonio Galloni.

8/6/2016Good colour; walnut aromas, savoury and nicely developed. Some greenness. The palate is very tannic but there is richness and some softness, too. Savoury flavours. Straightforward.

*Wine Rank: #161 of 225 - 2012 Nebbiolo from Barolo
