The Fogliati 2018 Barolo DOCG Treturne is a wine that embodies the essence and tradition of Piedmont, a region that has been the epicenter of Italian winemaking for centuries. Sourced from vineyards located in the prestigious Barolo subzone, this wine is the result of careful selection of Nebbiolo grapes, the beating heart of this great red. The 2018 vintage stands out for its favorable climate, which facilitated a uniform and rich maturation of the grapes, resulting in a wine of extraordinary complexity.
In appearance, it presents a deep garnet red, with some orange reflections that hint at its complexity. On the nose, it unleashes an intense and enveloping bouquet of withered roses, black cherries, ripe plums, and earthy notes reminiscent of truffle and smoke, followed by touching hints of vanilla and sweet spices, characteristic of skillful aging in oak barrels. On the palate, the Fogliati 2018 reveals itself to be elegant and full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and freshness that invites a long sip. The finish is persistent and harmonious, leaving a lingering aftertaste of red fruit and spices.
Ideal for pairing with red meat dishes such as braises, roasts, and aged cheeses, this Barolo Treturne is also perfect for savoring on its own, for a moment of pure contemplation. This wine asserts its personality with each sip, making it a must-try for wine lovers who wish to explore the depth and richness of Piedmontese enology. A true tribute to the terroir and the passion for an art that tells stories of time and dedication.
