Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo DOCG 2020
Barolo has the status of Italy’s greatest red wine and is the stuff of legends. What makes Giacomo Fenocchio’s– a fifth generation producer – special is its downright drinkability even when young. Even more so when you consider his traditional and non-interventionist winemaking. Long maceration (40 days) in stainless steel followed by 30 months in large Slavonian oak casks.
Plenty of tar and roses on the nose, liquorice and spice on the palate and a regally long finish.
