Tasting profile

A Barolo DOCG from Cantina dei 5 Sogni, a small estate in Monforte d'Alba, made from 100% Nebbiolo with a long maceration on the skins and ageing in wood. It is in the structured Monforte style: firm tannin and high acidity carrying sour cherry, rose, tar and licorice, with leather and tobacco emerging as it ages. Approachable on release in warm years but built to improve for well over a decade in bottle.
