2015 Garesio Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d’Alba DOCG
£39.00
“Maturing ruby with orange tinges. A touch reduced with brooding minerality underneath. Peppery cherry fruit on the nose with a suggestion of new leather. Integrated, lively acidity on the palate that is filled to the brim with compact cherry fruit of enormous length but never out of kilter. Concentrated and packed with muscular tannins.”

Product Description
Established by Giuseppe and Ornella Garesio, the domain is now mainly run by Giovanna, Giuseppe’s daughter. This is a Barolo for the ages. This is like fine, restrained Burgundies, that at first nosing and taste, you could miss, but give it the time they need, and they are glorious, with the classical Serralunga terroir nose of roses and minerals. Sharing vineyards with Giacomo Conterno and Altare, their cellar is located between their two cru sites, Ceretta and Gianetto. They farm organically, but as the sites both border non-organic neighbouring vineyards, they do not declare it. All wines are vinified and aged in the same way so as to best express their identity and terroir. For price to quality ratio, it’s an amazing bottling.
A wine with a bright garnet red color. The nose is intense, with hints of strawberry, cherry, red fruit, rose, violet, licorice and balsamic notes. It has a beautiful freshness and drinkability. Powerful, with delicate and elegant tannins.
