WINE DESCRIPTION
Prunotto Barolo is a full-bodied Italian red wine produced in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy. With its intense cherry and floral aromas, the wine displays a deep ruby colour and flavours that are earthy and spicy. On the palate, the tannins are firm yet well-balanced, with concentrated black fruit and chocolate notes. It pairs excellently with roasted game or aged cheeses.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Barolo from Prunotto is a classic expression of Nebbiolo.On the nose, aromas of dried rose petals, leather, and baking spices are present. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet balanced, with a smooth texture and flavors of ripe cherries, cedar, and dried herbs. The finish is long and persistent, with a lingering hint of minerality. An elegant and classic Barolo that will continue to improve in the bottle.
