Description
Still red wine from Barolo, Piedmont, 14% ABV, produced by Armando Parusso. 100% Nebbiolo. 0.75 L bottle, 2020 vintage. A Barolo that embodies the passion and dedication of the Parusso family, with a winemaking process that enhances the characteristics of Nebbiolo. The grapes are rigorously hand-picked with the utmost care in small perforated baskets. After a gentle pressing, the grapes undergo a long maceration. Alcoholic fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts without the use of sulfites, with careful control of maceration times and temperature. Aged in small oak barrels for a minimum of 18 months in contact with its indigenous yeasts. A swirl of sweet spice aromas and fruity notes; hints of cherry, mint, and licorice emerge. Ruby red, almost garnet, in color. Captivating, fruity, ripe, sweet tannins, balanced persistence.
