Giordano Barolo DOCG Italy Red Wine

Brilliant garnet-red color with hints of orange on the rim. The bouquet is ethereal and intense, with a typical dried rose scent. To the taste it is pleasantly austere, with elegant tannins and a long sweet cherry finish.

Upon their arrival to the cellar, Nebbiolo grapes undergo quality control, the stems are separated from the berries and the latter start the fermentation between 24 and 26 ?C. The yeasts used for this process are selected from the native stumps of Nebbiolo grapes and employed especially for these grapes. The fermentation/maceration lasts 18 to 22 days.

It matches perfectly with roasts, grilled and raw meats as well as strong cheeses. Also, Barolo is considered a meditation wine.
