Rocche dei Manzoni : Vigna Cappella di Santo Stefano 2009

2009 Barolo, pure Nebbiolo from Piedmont.

From an old Nebbiolo vineyard located around the Sante Stefano chapel, the Barolo Vigna Cappella di S.Stefano from Rocche dei Manzoni estate was aged during 36 months in wooden tun and 12 months in bottle before being tasted. This 2009 gives off intense and strong fragrances of ripped red berry, mild spices and violet. It is dense on the palate with a velvety texture, even though the tannins remain quite strong. About twenty years in cellar will allow the wine expressing its full aromatic potential.
