There’s nothing more profound than well-made, mature Barolo. Guido Porro’s is a textbook example, capable of serious seduction on the table. Ripe black cherry fruit dominate with supporting notes of jasmine tea, autumn leaves, rose, and licorice. Decant today or hide away for a few years in the cellar.
There are few grape varietals that enthrall wine lovers more than Nebbiolo. With gorgeous notes of cherry & rose petal, it’s delicate and finessed yet structured and age worthy. Year after year, Benevelli crafts a downright beautiful Langhe Nebbiolo geared toward everyday enjoyment.
