Wine Selection
Name | Giovanni Rosso Barolo (DOCG) 2015 (ID# 3491) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Varietal | Nebbiolo | |||
Region | Italy: Piedmont | |||
Notes | "Dried oranges, rose petals, citrus and fresh herbs. Medium to full body, grainy tannins and a spice-driven, flavorful finish." (James Suckling) "Camphor, wild berry, blue flower and brown spice aromas lead the way. The taut palate shows cranberry, pomegranate, baking spice and a hint of chopped mint alongside fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity." (Wine Enthusiast) | |||
Additional Notes "Fresh, offering cherry, strawberry, rose and white pepper aromas and flavors. Graceful, yet with ample grip on the long, dense and dusty finish. Captures the best of the vintage. Best from 2022 through 2040." (Wine Spectator) |
