Barale Fratelli 2007 Bussia (Barolo)

Country: Italy / Bussia
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Barale Fratelli / Barolo

Leather, tobacco and light Bresaola open the nose of this dark, masculine Barolo. But wait a few minutes and the wine starts to deliver elegant tones of rose, violet, tar and polished granite stone. The wine is not propped up by huge intensity, but it does offer a cool, streamlined feel.
