WINE DESCRIPTION

Azelia Barolo Bricco Fiasco is a premium wine produced by the renowned Azelia winery in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, Italy. The wine is made from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Bricco Fiasco vineyard, which is known for its steep slopes and calcareous soil. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques such as long maceration and aging in large oak barrels, resulting in a wine with complex aromas of red fruit, spices, and floral notes. The wine is full-bodied with firm tannins and a long finish, making it an excellent choice for pairing with rich dishes such as roasted meats and aged cheeses.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Barolo from Azelia is a classic example of the traditional Piedmontese style.On the nose, aromas of rose petal, dried cherry, and crushed rock are accompanied by subtle notes of licorice and spice. On the palate, ripe tannins, a velvety texture, and bright acidity combine to create a well-structured and balanced wine. Its finish is long and inviting, with a hint of earthiness and cocoa. This Barolo is a true expression of its terroir, and it will benefit from a few years of aging.
