Giovanni Rosso - Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba 2021 (750ml) Givry Premier CruThis is a blend of a wonderful mosaic of vineyards from across the commune: Costabella, Sorano, Ceretta, Baudana and Meriame towards the north; Broglio, Damiano and Lirano in the south. The aromas cover a wide spectrum across notes of cherry, raspberry, blood orange, wild herb and rose. Serralungas firm tannins are suavely ripe this year, and the wine is a vivid expression of its origins. Professional Reviews 94 points Falstaff Clear garnet with hints
