WINE DESCRIPTION

Mauro Molino Barolo is a classic Italian red wine made by one of the most respected producers in Piedmont. It comes from the Barolo DOCG appellation, known for producing some of the most powerful and complex Nebbiolo wines in the world. The vineyard features clay and limestone soils with south-facing exposure, which provide ideal conditions for the grapes to ripen slowly and develop nuanced flavors. The winemaking process includes traditional techniques, with fermentation in stainless steel tanks followed by aging in large oak barrels. The resulting wine is known for its intense aromas of cherry, rose petal, and spice, and a full-bodied, tannic, and long-lasting finish.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Barolo from Mauro Molino offers an intense and complex array of aromas and flavors.On the nose, ripe cherry, plum, tar, leather, earth, and baking spices come together to form an aromatic explosion. On the palate, this wine offers a full-bodied and velvety texture with flavors of black cherry, leather, tobacco, and dried herbs. The tannins are firm yet supple, and the finish is long and lingering. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for a few more years to experience its full potential.
