Villadoria Barolo Riserva 2011

Its color is characteristic of long-aged Barolo, garnet red.  The bouquet is packed and ethereal, with over-blown roses and cherries in alcohol initially dominant, followed by tobacco, licorice, truffle, leather, and tar. In the mouth, it is full-bodied, robust and austere. Its noble tannins temper with time to create a wine of a complexity that is characteristic of important wines. It can be laid down for more than 30 years.

It can be served with red meat-based, braised dishes, and aged cheeses. Excellent with the traditional dishes of the Langhe. It can also be a sipping wine.
