Zart rauchig unterlegte Nuancen von Zwetschken, Nougat, süßen Gewürzen, unterlegt mit Anklängen von Herzkirschen, ein Hauch von Velourleder, entwickelt sich gut im großen Glas.

The aromas are broad and intense and combine hickory notes with coffee, black fruit and spice. It's a modern, succulent wine executed in a bold and food- friendly style. Drink after 2015."

"The standard blend of Barolo, with a production of 100,000 bottles, is very much up to the new standards of Fontanafredda. Aromas of wood and ripe fruit on the nose, with firm, dry tannins over the ripe fruit, give some sense of hidden power."
