Additional Wine Notes
This is a fine example of a relaxed, approachable Barolo with plenty of kick to it. Lots of dark fruit with a touch of sweetness that is brought back by the herbaceaous edge that carries a little mint. Although young for a Barolo this has started to develop well and is fairly open already.

Their single vineyard Barolos, Cannubi and Brunate, are what they are most famous for and usually offer good value for the region.
