Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, high acidity, dry
A classic Barolo from Azelia, a well-regarded traditional producer in Castiglione Falletto known for wines that balance power with elegance. Expect the hallmark Nebbiolo profile of dried rose and tar alongside red cherry, leather, and savoury iron notes, wrapped in firm, grippy tannins that demand either a hearty meal or some patience in the cellar. The wine's high acidity gives it a lively, structured backbone that will carry it gracefully over many years.
