The first Barolo release from La Carlina. I've really liked everything that I've tried from this brother and sister team. There first Barolo is a beauty. Sourced from several different organically tended Nebbiolo vineyards. Hand tended vines, including the harvest. This is a modern version of Barolo, the fruit character is pure and well defined. Oak aged for two years. It's medium deep in color, typical of Barolo, but with tons of aromatics, red fruit, dried rose, savory spice, cardamom, depth and character galore. It's best to open at least an hour before serving, it'll evolve with time in the glass, it really shines on day two. Drink it with most anything from the grill or hearty northern Italian dishes. Total production 500 cases. Drink now through 2026.
