Cashew finish

sporting a broad and enriched bouquet that paints a panoramic vision of this MGA that straddles the villages of La Morra and Barolo

all wrapped in a very firm but not aggressive finish

It is long and packed with black cherry liqueur on the palate

Ballot Millot, Volnay Santenots other_regions_italy and the colour is inky(from young vines situated in Les Plures; this had just been bottled when I tasted it). A background hint of volatile acidity is present on the otherwise pretty and fresh aromas of cherry, raspberry and spice. The sleek, delicious and acceptably concentrated middleweight flavors possess good power and solid length though the firm finish seems somewhat awkward, which may be due to the very recent bottling.
