This six-month barrel-aged wine boasts a well-balanced palate with crisp acidity, velvety tannins, ripe red and black fruit, cacao, and mushroom notes. The long, fruity finish is best expressed after 15 minutes of decanting.
Serve at 16°C-18°C with white meat, pizzas, lightly spiced Indian dishes, or ripe cheeses.
Powerful, elegant, and balanced, this Barolo will leave no doubt as to why it is said to be “the king of wines and the wines of kings”.

The generous, lingering finish is best enjoyed when the wine is decanted for 45 minutes and served at 16°C – 18°C with red meat roasts, truffle dishes, and ripe cheese.
