Characteristics of this Barolo Riserva

On the organoleptic examination this great wine shows a light garnet red colour with slight orange hues. The scent on the nose expresses decisive and beautiful citrus notes that anticipate slightly blood, ferrous, cinchona and rhubarb hints. The dry, decisive taste of great elegance. A still defined tannic texture and a certain acidity outline the body, wonderful, up to an impeccable class finish.
