Scent and Flavor
AROMA
Deep ruby red with orange highlights. An intense rose bouquet with scents of liquorice and spice.

Full bodied, austere, yet elegant. A pleasant “goudron” becomes noticeably apparent after 7-8 years of aging.
FINISH
Rich, dry and deep in flavor, Barolo is an excellent accompaniment to red meats and spicy cheeses.
