Aldo Clerico | Barolo | 2016

Maximum expression of the nebbiolo grape in the Langhe. Wonderful floral notes infuse with delicious fruity notes for a fresh and complex taste. Aldo's first wine is his Barolo from vineyards surrounding his home in Monforte d'alba. This garnet colored Barolo has ripe fruit, rose and spicy leather and tea leaf aromas with elegant structure, long finish leaving a silky mouthfeel. On the nose it is very intense while floral notes mix with typical vineyard scents of violets and red berries. On the palate, the violets blend with licorice flavors and noticeable tannins. A creamy texture from the oak barrels creates a pleasant mix of fresh yet complex flavors.
