Description
Barolo Arborina 2018 Giovanni Corino
Variety: Nebbiolo 100%
Ruby red color with garnet hints.
The nose immediately shows the class in which it is enveloped. It has intense and diversified aromas of violet, blackberry and black cherry. Swirling the glass spread notes of spices, with vanilla, cloves, licorice and rhubarb. Remarkable and brilliant, they color the façade with liveliness and charm.
On the palate it is harmonious and finely balanced, with bright, albeit gentle, tannins and excellent freshness. The minerality pushed more by the sandy veins of the soil is not drawn back. Balanced we said, because the volume and the creaminess adornly complete the whole. Deep and persistent between aromas of cinchona, blackberry and licorice.
The Giovanni Corino winery grants an admirable interpretation of Barolo from the famous Arborina vineyard, capable of expressing all the potential of Nebbiolo in La Morra.
