This Barolo from the best Nebbiolo grapes in the single vineyard Vigna La Rosa represents the unique quality of the wines from Fontanafredda. The soil there is rich in sand, limestone and the blue marl typical of Serralunga - the ideal conditions for an outstanding fine wine. The wine's dark colour gleams with pomegranate-red highlights. Notes of rose, violet, tobacco and a subtle hint of vanilla unfold on the nose. A velvety feel follows on the palate, which segues into well-balanced, full-bodied fruit with fine acidity and dense tannins. The finish is long and highly aromatic.
