Displaying a brilliant ruby hue, this Barolo captivates with aromatic notes of pepper and licorice on the nose. The palate reveals a dry, structured profile with commanding tannins that linger gracefully. A refined choice for pairing with robust meat dishes, braised preparations, cured meats, and mature cheeses.

The Fratelli Serio & Battista Borgogno 2019 Barolo shows a luminous ruby appearance and lean fruit weight. The bouquet follows up with crushed rose, dried cherry, licorice root and nectarine. I love the delicate, silky nature of the mouthfeel. This elegant wine has an accessible side, but it delivers a good value versus quality proposition.
Aromas of macerated cherries with mixed spices, thyme, dried violets and roses all work like a spell to draw you deeper into the wine. Each part of the palate is in its place with fruit, earth, spice and savory qualities all working toward the same goal: being delicious. Drinkable now, this will go the distance as a classic Barolo.
