Batasiolo Barolo Briccolina 2015  £78.21

Batasiolo Barolo Briccolina 

The Batasiolo Estate has vineyards holdings located within the prized Barolo wine-growing areas: Batasiolo, Morino, Cerequio and Brunate in La Morra; Boscareto and the historical Briccolina in Serralunga d’Alba; Bricco di Vergne and Zonchetta in Barolo; Tantesi and Bussia Bofani in Monforte d’Alba.

A heady mix of liquorice, bouillon, leather and tar highlights this muscular red. Should develop on a relatively fast track, yet remains fresh and long on the finish.

Wine with deep garnet red colour and persistent aromas of ripe fruit, flowers and spices. Subtly reminiscent of wood, its main characteristic, the typical aromas of Nebbiolo blend to create a sensation of rare elegance. Powerful, elegant and charming, it has a full-bodied palate of great intensity. All the notes in the nose are harmonically enhanced making this a wine to be remembered.
