Often described as Italy's greatest wine, Barolo is a red wine produced in the northern Italian region of Piedmont, specifically in the Langhe region, an area of steep and rolling hillside vineyards dotted with small villages. Italy's Barolo wines are powerful and complex tannic, acidic reds. Barolo is classified as a 'Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG)' wine, the highest classification for Italy's wines which are produced under strictly controlled growing and production conditions. Barolo represents the top of Italy's designated wine appellations and one of its smallest. A garnet-red in colour with orange hues. Scents of raspberries, rose petal and dark ripe cherry. On the palate, full-bodied and generous with a velvety mouthfeel leading to a lingering finish suggesting sweet spices and a hint of vanilla.
