ABOUT THE WINE
The story of Vinchio and Vaglio Serra is the story of their inhabitants’ love for Monferrato, a difficult and lean land, with steep slopes overhanging vines at the edge of the woods. Despite the challenging landscape, on these hills the sun shines all day long, frost and fog are absent and the rows of grapes only shadow themselves from dawn to dusk. Founded in 1959, Vinchio Vaglio produces exceptional quality wines from this challenging yet rewarding landscape.
TASTING NOTES
This Barolo D.O.C.G. has a bright ruby red colour when it is young. The nose is complex, with intense floral aromas with hints of spice and liquorice. With ageing, it reveals typical aromas of dried flowers and spices, while the taste is warm and fragrant, with well-blended tannins, then it opens up and has an extremely long and soft finish. This is an important wine, for true connoisseurs and stronger dishes.
