2018 Barolo DOCG Camilla (By the Case)

Barolo Camilla is the expression of the vineyards that our family have been farming for generations in different villages of the Langa. The Nebbiolo grapes are carefully blended to produce an elegant and refined Barolo. This wine represents the harmony and the balance of a traditional Barolo. The aromas are ample and floral with nuances of spices. The palate
is gentle with fine tannins balanced with the typical structure, which can be appreciated in youth for those who love the energy of Barolo that reaches its best expression with a few years of bottle age.
