Stroppiano Leonardo Barolo

Description

93 Points James Suckling

Now here’s a Barolo that is an amazing value. We love the rather plush and spicy style. It is a wine that will reward some cellaring, although we have found this is fantastic already, as long you get it in the decanter an hour or two before you want to drink it. Stunning for the price.

“Exquisite, clean nose of blackberries and mild oak that follow through to a medium to full palate, where the balance of acidity, tannin and fruit is perfectly played out. The finish will extend even further with time. Nicely done.”
-James Suckling

Colour: ruby red with just the right reflective characteristics of garnet.

Aroma: intense with a pleasant scent of brushwood interspersed with tobacco and spicy notes and characterized by considerable elegance and composure.

Taste: dry, warm and velvety with an intense impact that is full and harmonious, with just the right level of tannins. Enveloping and persistent, culminating in a very pleasant aftertaste.
