About this wine

Patres Barolo is a dry, powerful Nebbiolo with the classic interplay of red fruit, rose petal and savoury earthy notes. Its high acidity and firm tannins provide structure and length, while bottle age can bring nuances of tar, spice and leather. The balance of fruit, power and evolution will vary with the vintage.
