Barolo DOCG Bricco Manzoni

Description and tasting notes

Colour: Intense garnet red

Nose: on the nose, the wine is very intense with notes of red fruits, in particular plum, hints of tobacco and leather from the use of French Allier wood, liquorice and dried flowers.

Taste: very persistent. Tannin is present but not aggressive, well balanced with the alcohol content and the wine’s great body. Structure is its predominant feature in the mouth.
