WINE DESCRIPTION

Sordo Barolo is a premium wine produced by the Sordo Giovanni winery in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, Italy. The wine is made from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the region's renowned vineyards, which are characterized by their steep slopes and unique microclimates. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels for several years. The resulting wine is a classic Barolo, with a deep ruby color, complex aromas of red fruit, spices, and earthy notes, and a full-bodied, tannic structure. Sordo Barolo is a perfect choice for wine enthusiasts looking for a high-quality, traditional Barolo that showcases the unique terroir of Piedmont.
