Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Jun 11
The 2000 Barolo Sarmassa (magnum) is another utterly impeccable, layered wine of the highest level. A mélange of ripe red fruit, spices, flowers and mint literally explodes on the palate as this beautifully centered, poised wine shows its class and pedigree. All the aromas and flavors are woven in a rich tapestry of indescribable elegance. This is a dazzling Barolo from Roberto Voerzio.

Barolo

Barolo, the "King of Wines," is a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
