Segni di Langa Barolo N.I.C.B.A.R.R. 2020
Gianluca Colombo
NICBARR = Name In Code Bricco Ambroggio Ravera Ravinali
Our Tasting Note: Medium ruby core, lighter pink edge. The nose is med+ and grows, crushed rose petals, truffle, red cherry, raspberry, red currants, blood orange zest, and subtle notes of tar. Texturally finessed and classic at the same time, really a unique expression all his own. Tannins are med+ to firm, ripe, long and youthful, well structured but in harmony for this age. A long, fresh finish closes it out.
A blend of 3 Barolo Cru vineyard sites across the region to give a classic Barolo blend of multiple sites, as it was always done in the early years of production. Maria Teresa of Bartolo Mascarello still adheres to this tradition and makes one of the world's most sought after wines - a singular Barolo! Macerated 30-55 days on the skins, then aged in large neutral oak, the classic recipe for winemaking in Barolo!
