AROMA:
The bouquet on the nose is classical Serralunga terroir nose of roses and minerals.
COLOUR:
This Garesio Barolo Gianetto has a brilliant garnet red color.
TASTE:
The Gianetto vineyard is next to Cerretta. It was never bottled before using the vineyard name as it was added to famous brands, like Prunotto, as fruit and wine from here in Serralunga was always an important part of Barolo. Garesio have the best part of the vineyard, east facing, bathed by the morning ‘sori’, between 270 and 310 metres above sea level.
On the palate it is full-bodied, rich, balanced, with delicate, elegant tannins.
FOOD COMBINATION:
Excellent with all kinds of food, but an ideal match in particular for game, roast and grilled meats. Outstanding with mature hard cheeses.
These are Barolo for the ages. These are like fine, restrained Burgundies, that at first nosing and taste, you could miss, but give them the time they need, and they are glorious.
