TASTING NOTE:

The Barolo Via Nuova has a lively garnet ruby color with an intense nose of notes of dried flowers, spice, red fruit, almond and citrus fruits. Good body, nice tannins and a long finish. When first opened it is a little timid, but with time in the glass or prior decanting it opens up nicely.
