Mature Vintage Charm: The warm 2011 growing season has yielded a wine whose tannins have fully melted over a decade of cellaring, revealing masterclass depth.

Aroma: Deep and elegant, offering macerated red cherry, dried rose petal, and fig, intertwined with tertiary notes of leather, tobacco, black truffle, pine needle, and liquorice.
-
Palate: Firmly structured yet seamless on the palate, balanced by lively, energetic acidity and velvety, integrated tannins that showcase classic Barolo power and grace.
-
Finish: Exceptionally persistent, lingering with nuances of warm spice, roasted coffee bean, and subtle mature red fruit.
Pairing & Serving Suggestions
-
Food Pairings: Slow-braised Ossobuco, black truffle pasta, roasted lamb chops, wild game, and aged Parmigiano-Reggiano.
