Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto 2018

"The 2018 Barolo has rich notes of sweet red fruit and hints of tobacco on the nose. The soft tannins and balanced acidity keeps the wine radiant. A complete joy on its own by-the-glass or when paired with a myriad of simple or rich foods." —winemaker

"With a luminous garnet red color, the Barolo Cascina Nuova 2019 is the result of the vinification of the grapes coming from the youngest vines in MGA Ravera. Clear and representative, in this youthful phase it fully expresses hints of juicy red fruit, red-orange, and nectarine, alternating with spicy notes and balsamic hints. Of great softness and silkiness, thanks to well-integrated tannins and good freshness, it proves to find the right balance among complexity, intensity, and excellent drinkability." —winemaker

"A classic style Barolo. Excellent structure, harmony and elegance. Soft tannins and balanced fruit. Approachable, but with a very long ageing potential." —winemaker

"A very classical style Barbaresco: elegance and velvety, with ripe and spicy fruit. Strong tannins, but elegant. Good structure and concentration. Very long life." —winemaker

"The 2018 Barolo Cascina Nuova is focused on elegance, refinement and pleasantness of drinking. Enveloping aromas of strawberry, raspberry and blood orange are woven together with floral and spicy scents. The mouthfeel is juicy and well balanced; it offers a smooth drink thanks to an excellent freshness and a velvet and well integrated tannic texture, a recurring element in Elvio Cogno's Barolo wines, but particularly accentuated in this 2018 vintage." —winemaker

"Noble and generous, glory of old Piedmont, a wine suitable for long aging, Barolo is the absolute master of the table. It conquers the palate with the conviction of strength, harmony and fullness and holds its sway at length. Barolo Marcenasco has ancient origins. There are historical documents from the "Rigestum Comunis Albae" that bear witness to the cultivation of the Nebbiolo wine in the "Marcenascum" area already back in the 12th Century. Barolo Marcenasco is smooth, balanced, elegant and faithfully, best to drink between 6 to 12 years after the vintage." —winemaker

"Full body vintage with ripe fruity aromas, balanced tannins and elegant finish. Full bodied wines with intense red fruit matched by youthful tannins and elegant finish." —winemaker

"Vigna Ca’ Guicciardi has an intense, bright red ruby color, marked aromas of ripe red fruit with prevailing notes of black cherry, currant, spices (liquorice, cloves and cinnamon) and dried violet; the warmth and light during ripening produce round and rich tannins on the palate." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review- With grapes grown at the foot of the Alps in northern Italy, the soil is filled with quartz and metamorphic rock that holds warmth from the sun and adds to the unique characteristics of the grapes.
You'll find light and dark fruit flavors here complimented by a spice character that rides into the finish quite nicely.
Enjoy with Past Primavera with grilled Chicken. Enjoy!
