2020 Giovanni Manzone Barolo 'Gramolere', Piedmont, Italy

Lively ruby red with a dense texture. The nose is intense and harmonious with notes of cherry, raspberry and red fruit, underscored by spice and balsamic depth. After air, the palate reveals tart red berry, pipe tobacco and blood orange zest, with excellent tannic balance and a warm, full, sapid structure. The finish is long and persistent.
