Barolo Docg Sarmassa – Virna Borgogno
£117,00 – £146,00
The Barolo Sarmassa Docg by Virna Borgogno embodies the elegance and complexity of Piedmont.
Vinification:
Crushing and destemming, maceration with skins for about 15-20 days at a maximum temperature of 29-31°C. After racking, the wine is aged in large oak barrels for about 18 months. It completes maturation in inox before bottling. Refinement in lying bottles for at least 6 months.
Very intense ruby red color, still rather fresh aroma with notes of red berries and balsamic hints immersed in a delicate background of vanilla. Dry, full, rich in body and structure accompanied by polyphenolic compounds that allow for long aging.
