Merchant's description

Here is a classy Barolo from Vietti. 100% Nebbiolo grapes are selected from very important small vineyards in the Barolo region. The vines are between 10 and 43 years old, planted on a clay-limestone soil. On the nose explosive, opulent, charming and immediate. Hints of plum, ripe red and black cherry, blackberry, sour cherry, rose petals and tobacco. Rich and powerful on the palate, with well-integrated tannins, notes of Alpine herbs and a leather finish.
