Barolo Brunate

This vineyard is situated on the Hill of the Cannubi. A deep, sometimes inky wine, with tobacco aromas. It has a great, smoky complexity and surprising finesse and suppleness for such a weighty wine. A perfect accompaniment to red meat game and cheese. Serve at room temperature. (12 x 75 cl)

The wine has a magnificent garnet-red color with intense ruby-red reflections, of correct intensity and tonality. The nose is composite, rich, full and persistent, with hints of vanilla, sweet spices, tobacco, mountain hay and underbrush. Impressive taste sensations reveal the wine's imperious, noble, warm and velvety character, and the flavor is long and intense. (12 x 75 cl)

The tiny production from this fabled vineyard in the village of La Morra produces a wine with fullness and depth on the palate. (1 x 75 cl)

This estate, started by Giacomo Voerzio in the 1950's, has been run by his son Roberto since the 1980's and has done exceedingly well under this new regime. Considered by many to be the leading producer of the region, Roberto Voerzio is an outspoken modernist and is understandably, unabashedly proud of his own estate and techniques. His highly concentrated wines are the result of the very low yields he enforces in the vineyard, leaving 8 buds per vine. If the summer is exceptional, it is left as is and yields little more than 1 bottle per vine, approximately 2 tons per acre. If the weather is rainy and cool in late August or early September, production is reduced. The 1999 vintage is big and chewy, with loads in reserve. Aromas of mushrooms, berries and smoke combine with a full-bodied palate and a great finish. A fantasic wine due to extremely low yields with only 320 cases made.
