Barolo DOCG Brunate Roberto Voerzio 2017

While prestigious, this fine Barolo displays a slightly austere character in its youth. As you will have gathered, a few years’ cellaring will greatly benefit this wine, which will then unveil its full potential and its rich notes of stewed fruit, coffee, liquorice and herbs. Structured by firm tannins, this wine is remarkably well balanced, making it a perfect match for characterful dishes such as duck Parmentier with sweet potato or confit lamb. The estate, which has become a benchmark in the appellation in just a few years, is committed to healthy viticultural methods, even without being certified. No synthetic molecules (fungicides or herbicides) are used and, to ensure high berry concentration, the vines are planted at a high density and green harvesting is performed. In the winery, native yeasts trigger the fermentation process in inert containers. The wine is matured for a considerable time in small vessels.
