Barolo Ravera 2013 Sordo

Barolo - Ravera 2013

ノヴェッロ村の銘醸畑、ラヴェーラ。

ノヴェッロ村でもとりわけ美しい場所に位置し、いま高い注目を集める畑ラヴェーラ。ネッビオーロ100%から生まれた2013年です。濃厚な色合いに、干し草や秋の葉を思わせる緑の印象のブーケ。しっかりとした果実味に、フレッシュな小さな果実、タバコ、甘いスパイスのニュアンスが重なります。酸とタンニンのバランスが取れたストラクチャーは、熟成とともに調和とフレッシュさを増していきます。ローストした肉やジビエと。

Tasting note

Intense color. The bouquet has a green impression reminiscent of hay and autumn leaves. In addition to the firm fruitiness, there are nuances of fresh fruit, small fruit, tobacco and sweet spices. The structure is firm, and the acidity and tannins are very well balanced. As it ages, it becomes more mellow and gains harmony and freshness. This wine has great aging potential.

Food pairing

Roasted meats, game
