Tasting Notes

Jancis Robinson Walter Speller - 21 Jul 20
Barolo. Tasted blind. Mid ruby with orange tinges. Brooding nose with quite a bit of power underneath and with a hint of camphor. Compact fruit tightly packed with powdery tannins. Very solid. This has a great future. (WS)

Barolo Vineyard Fine Wine

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.
