The Raineri 2009 Barolo DOCG Monserra is a true expression of the terroir of the Langhe, where gentle hills and a favorable climate come together to produce exceptionally high-quality Nebbiolo grapes. This vintage, characterized by ideal weather and careful harvesting, has yielded a wine with remarkable aromatic complexity and structure. In appearance, it presents an intense garnet red color that invites exploration of its depth.
On the nose, the aromatic profile is a true sensory journey: notes of ripe cherry and plum intertwine with scents of withered roses, leather, and sweet spices, creating an extremely enchanting bouquet. With aeration, earthy hints, truffle, and an essence of cedar wood emerge, adding further complexity and refinement to the bouquet.
On the palate, the Raineri 2009 is extraordinarily balanced, with soft and well-integrated tannins accompanying a lively acidity. Flavors of red fruit combine with nuances of aromatic herbs and a savory minerality that reveal the typicity of Barolo. The finish is long and persistent, with a good promise of evolution over time. It is a wine that pairs wonderfully with typical dishes from the Piedmont region, such as braised beef in Barolo or truffle risotto, for an unforgettable culinary experience. Another point to highlight is that this bottle is beautifully suited for prolonged aging, revealing new nuances as the years pass.
