AROMA:
Sordo Barolo Rocche di Castiglione has an ever intense bouquet, rich and lingering with hints of licorice, mint and sensations of ripe fruit.
COLOUR:
Wine with a nice bright colour and captivating nuances that endure over time.
TASTE:
With time, estery sensations develop with hints recalling resin and sweet spices. Full flavor, marked acidity and tannic weave which evolve and balance out with maturation. Good ageing prospects.
Crushing/destemming, vinification with fermentation in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature with long submerged-cap maceration for 4 to 7 weeks, depending on the vintage. Natural malolactic fermentation at temperature 20°C.
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.
