2017 Barolo, Cascina Fontana, Piedmont, Italy

Description

Sixty percent of the blend is from Villero and Marondino in Castiglione Falletto, lending focus and elegance. The balance is from Giachini in La Morra, bringing perfume and intensity. The nose is floral and berry-sweet with savoury depth. The palate shows soft fruits and wild herbs; it’s complex and fragrant but tightly coiled, with a firm mineral grip. Drink 2028-2045.

About this wine

Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines and is hardly ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the region.
