Giovanni Rosso - Barolo del Comune di Serralunga - DOCG

Description

Overview: “Seductive,” “Radiant,” “Of an impressive power and composure”: these are just three of the countless definitions that the most important names in the world of wine have used for the Barolo DOCG from the commune of Serralunga d’Alba, a great classic by Giovanni Rosso with polished and luminous tannins. A play of balance between mass and agility, freshness and energy, youthful tension and ancient mentholated notes that defines our work."

The grapes are harvested by hand in October. After destemming and soft crushing, the juice is fermented in contact with the skins in a concrete tank for about 25 days, with daily pump-overs and one délestage at half way point.

Tasting Notes: Cocoa and chocolate hints, ripen raspberry, plums and peppery hints. Savoury and juicy, soft in the mid-palate.

Pairing: Grilled liver sausages, long cooking red meats.
