Fontanafredda Barolo Paiagallo Vigna la Villa 2006
The 2006 Barolo Vigna La Villa Paiagallo flows with layers of dark fruit, smoke, licorice and tar, showing superb concentration. The 2006 possesses a decidedly more classic texture and feel than has been the case in other recent vintages. Despite its sheer power, the tannins remain remarkably harmonious for such a young Barolo. This is a fabulous vintage for the Paiagallo...

Colour

Ruby red with garnet reflections.

Bouquet

The bouquet is rich in black berry fruit: cherry, blackberry and plum, with clear hints of spices such as cinnamon, cloves and black pepper.

Flavour

In the mouth the soft and sweet tannins blend with a strong sensation of fruit. The acidity, well balanced with the tannins, gives a sensation of freshness that prolongs the sensations.

Pairing

Meat
Game
Cheese
Matured cheese
Pork

From this winery:
