James Suckling 100
The Barolo Riserva 1752 of the Damilano company comes from the ancient vineyards located in one of Barolo's most famous wines, the Cannubi.
Nebbiolo grapes are vinified with a wooden fermentation for 20 days and a submerged capsule maceration on the skins for 30 days. The wine is aged for 60 months in large oak barrels, followed by 24 months in the bottle.
With its ruby-red colour and garnet highlights, it opens in the nose with notes of violet, cherry and plum, plus notes of spice, liquorice, cocoa, leather and tobacco. The sip is warm and powerful, velvety and harmonious, with excellent persistence.
Excellent to accompany great dishes made with red meats, game and noble poultry, as well as ripened cheeses.
