The Chiarlo Michele 2013 Barolo DOCG Riserva Tortoniano is a wine that embodies the essence of Piedmontese tradition, expressing a timeless elegance and a complexity that only time can bestow. Sourced from the heart of the Langhe, this Riserva is the result of a careful selection of Nebbiolo grapes, grown in soils rich in limestone and loam, which give the wine a robust structure.
Outdoors, the aromatic profile unveils a symphony of intense fragrances. Notes of cherry and fresh plum intertwine with accents of sweet spices, rose petals, and earthy undertones. On the palate, the tannic power is balanced by a velvety softness, with a persistent finish that reveals a subtle touch of tobacco and leather. The complexity is enhanced by over 36 months of aging in oak barrels, enriching the wine with evolving nuances, making it perfect for aging.
Ideal paired with traditional dishes such as Barolo braised meat or porcini mushroom risotto, this wine lends itself to special moments, offering unforgettable convivial experiences. With a serving temperature between 16 and 18 degrees Celsius, the Chiarlo Michele Barolo Riserva Tortoniano is a true celebration of Italian wine culture, capable of transporting those who taste it on a sensory journey through the golden hills of the Langhe. A must-have for every wine enthusiast and a great ambassador of Piedmont’s winemaking heritage.
