Description

Allow me to introduce you to the magnificent Matteo Ascheri Barolo Sorano, a wine that embodies the rich tradition and exquisite terroir of the Piedmont region in Italy. Crafted with meticulous care by the esteemed Matteo Ascheri winery, this Barolo is a testament to the artistry and passion that defines Italian winemaking. This wine is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, which are carefully selected from the Sorano vineyard, known for its ideal sun exposure and well-drained soils. This location provides the Nebbiolo grapes with an optimal location to mature, resulting in a concentration of flavour and distinctive aromatics. Each year is rated with stars on the label (Vendemmia), which shows the quality of the wine. This wine matures for an extended period in oak barrels, allowing it to develop a complex and harmonious character. The nose is incredibly inviting, marked by layers of dried cherry, plums, rose petals, and a touch of liquorice. There are tertiary notes like leather, tobacco and a hint of truffle. The Barolo Sorano shows its best with a long decanting time of at least 1 hour, so the aromas can really unfold. When you sip, you will get the full body of the wine, with concentrated tannins and acidity, which shows its aging potential. The long finish contains dark fruit and spices.

What makes the Barolo Sorano truly exceptional is its versatility when it comes to food pairings. This wine is a fantastic match for rich dishes such as braised beef short ribs, osso buco, or roasted game meats. Its robust structure and complex flavours also make it an excellent companion for aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino. If you're looking to impress your guests or simply elevate your own dining experience, the Matteo Ascheri Barolo Sorano is the perfect choice. Its elegance and depth will captivate your palate, making every meal a truly unforgettable occasion. Don't miss the opportunity to savor this remarkable wine and experience the pinnacle of Italian winemaking.
