#67 WINE SPECTATOR TOP 100
Sourced from vineyards in La Morra, Verduno, and Serralunga d'Alba, Ascheri's classic Barolo is a complex interplay of Morello cherry brandy, blood orange peel, subtle floral top notes, woody-herbal accents (like rosemary), and a warming cinnamon bark accenbt that contributes to a balsamy base (resinous, vannilic). It's warm-toned aromas are matched by a warmth on the palate, while a luminous beam of acid cuts through the sleek, plump fruit texture and fine-grained tannins provide a lightly drying grip. This is a Barolo you can enjoy now, just give it a little time to open up in glass or decanter and pair with richer dishes.... for meats: pork or lamb roast, well-herbed! Serve around a cool 62F.
"The 2021 Barolo is a gorgeous entry-level offering from Matteo Ascheri. Bright acids and persistent tannins immediately announce a serious Barolo... Expressive floral and savory notes lead into a core of vibrant red-toned fruits. This is a terrific wine. " - Antonio Galloni, VINOUS MEDIA
