Barolo Villero Giacomo Fenocchio 2016

From the historic Giacomo Fenocchio winery, one of the most faithful interpreters of traditional Barolo, the 2016 Barolo Villero is an extraordinary expression of power, depth, and longevity. The Fenocchio family, faithful to a production style that includes long macerations and aging in large oak barrels, perfectly expresses the character of the prestigious Villero cru, known for its rich soils and the production of highly structured wines. 2016 was an exceptional vintage in the Langhe, celebrated for its harmony and impressive aging potential.

Made from pure Nebbiolo grapes, the wine has been aged for 36 months in large Slavonian oak barrels. On the nose, it presents a complex and layered bouquet of red fruits, ripe cherry, licorice, sweet spices, and a balsamic touch. On the palate, it is structured and enveloping, with dense, well-integrated tannins and a pleasant freshness that guarantees a long evolution over time. The finish is persistent and leaves an impression of great harmony and depth. It pairs magnificently with rich roasts, game, and mature cheeses.
