Barolo Sarmassa

Full

Cork

With almost five hectares in Sarmassa, Brezza is the reference for this subdistrict, and the family’s holdings include plantings dating back to 1941. The 2022 sits shoulder to shoulder with its sibling from Cannubi, and though less perfumed, it wafts subtly with mint, tea and tobacco. Sweet herbs pick up on the palate where red currant and sumac berries demonstrate laudable flavour depth. Tangy and crisp in acidity, its chalky tannins are quite strapping in their power. The finish is impressive: dry and irony with hints of lovage. Commanding, but never weighed down.
