Sorry, this item is no longer available
Product code: 00983075
Sweet toffee and strawberry aromas with a gentle rusticity lead into a palate of fine Italian complexity: expect red fruits, strawberries, truffle, cinnamon, violet and chocolate. Layers of elegant flavour are bound together by a delicate yet firm thread of apple acidity.
These Barbera grapes have been selected from a group of 400 farms in the Langhe area of Piedmont. Only fruit from the best exposures on the best slopes and the finest vineyards makes the blend, and winemaker Daniel Ponzo ensures his grape’s lovely smooth fruit character is always to the fore. With the average age of the vines at 25–30 years old, deep concentration is almost guaranteed. The final blend is aged in French and American oak barrels for one year.

Very Disappointing
No, I don't recommend this
Do not be taken in by the 'Barolo' tag. Even at 14.5 percent (not the advertised 15) the only thing about this wine is it smoothness. It's devoid of the characteristics of both the grape and the style and is either poorly produced or already tired. 4 of us, none buffs but know what we like were all of the same opinion. Save your money for better Italian wine - I can see why this is offer and it should not be on sale. Avoid.

Excellent value for money wine
Yes, I recommend this
This Barolo was excellent, very full bodied and strong, not a weak wine. We enjoyed this with fillet steak one day and Tagliatelli Bolognese another and it was delicious with the red meat. We bought two cases and therefore enjoyed a 25% discount which made it tremendous value.
