Coming from a family that lives and breathes Barolo wines, you know this one is going to be fab! Silvio Grasso Barolo hails from La Morra, a little village with big fame in the Barolo wine region! Very intense, elegant and fruity on the nose, with hints of dry red fruit, orange peel, a bit of cocoa and earthy notes – and that's not all. Alluring bursts of violets, tar, rose, hints of leather and balsamic come through as well! Medium-full bodied, deliciously concentrated and rich through the lasting finish. Very drinkable now, this young Barolo already boasts soft tannins. Try it with pasta with freshly shaved truffle, or five-spice braised lamb!
