Giovanni Rosso 2011 Serra (Barolo)

Country: Italy / Serra
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Giovanni Rosso / Barolo

This focused, full-bodied wine opens with aromas of scorched earth, ripe black-skinned fruit and a whiff of game. The tight palate is still rather closed but already offers dense black cherry, clove, licorice and grilled herb alongside firm, fine-grained tannins. Drink 2021–2031.
