Sordo Giovanni Barolo Ravera 2017
Vineyard planted in one of the most beautiful places in the municipality of Novello. Wine country, and quite coveted.

Colour

To the eye, it is rich in colour.

Bouquet

The bouquet has an overtone of greenness with hints of mountain hay and Autumn leaves. Nuances of fresh fruit, small fruit, tobacco and sweet spices often join its decided vinosity.

Flavour

A well structured, very balanced wine in its acidity and tannicity. It keeps its vinosity as it comes round; its harmony, freshness, and value increase. It is a very ageable wine.

Pairing

Excellent with roasts, game.
