Barolo Rocche di Castiglione DOCG 2019 - Sordo

A Barolo made entirely from Nebbiolo, from the Rocche di Castiglione cru, aged in large Slavonian oak casks. It is austere and of notable structure, complex in aroma and attractive on the palate, with good ageing potential. It pairs well with red meat and game dishes, and is suggested with venison in salmì. Bright garnet red. The nose recalls dried flowers, ripe forest fruits, liquorice, mint, sweet spices, cedar and sandalwood; the palate is full-bodied and velvety in its tannic texture, balanced and long-lasting.
