NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This 2015 Mascarello Giuseppe e Figlio Barolo Villero is an exquisite and harmonious expression of Nebbiolo, showing aromas of red fruit, dried rose petals, licorice, and baking spices.On the palate, it is full-bodied and well structured, with ripe tannins and a long finish. Flavors of red cherry, dried fig, and blackberry are framed by hints of cedar and tobacco.
