2020 Villadoria Sori Paradiso, Barolo DOCG, Italy (750ml)

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:

It is characteristically ruby red in color with garnet highlights. It is intense and complex on the nose, with rose, violet, cherry, licorice, tar and truffle aromas. On the palate, it stands out for the dense structure of its noble tannins – austere, powerful and full-bodied. The finish is all-encompassing, harmonious and long lasting, with great minerality, characteristic of Serralunga’s classic terroir

TASTING NOTES: 

Attractive nose of ripe cherries, dried cranberries, chocolate, oranges, licorice and walnuts. Medium-bodied, dry and savory, with a dusty texture to its tannins. A bit chewy, with juicy acidity coming through. Better after 2027.
