an unctuous texture

and they only use French oak barrels

This wine shows a harder

even caressing texture to the medium-bodied flavors that possess good levels of dry extract along with solid punch and power on the firm and lightly austere finale

Giuseppe Mascarello, Barolo Villero other_regions an unctuous textureModerately saturated medium red. Perfumed aromas of cherry, strawberry, coffee, mocha and flowers. Rich, suave and concentrated; nicely horizontal on the palate, but with its flesh cut byt slightly spiky acidity. The broad finish features dusty tannins and lovely floral persistence. Seems a tad rustic today and in need of patience. Stephen Tanzer
