Giacosa Fratelli Barolo Scarrone “Vigna al Mandorlo” 2012

Garnet red with light tinges of orange. Complex and evolving. Floral notes of rose and fruity hints of blood oranges, but also spicy and ethereal scents of licorice, tobacco, and even white truffle. It is warm, persistent and well-structured on the palate, thanks to its high extract and consistent tannic texture. Amidst the fruity and spicy notes, an interestingly marked sapidity stands out, endowed by the sandy-marly soil composition typical of the Mandorlo vineyard.
