Fontanafredda - Barolo Vigna La Rosa 2016 (750ml) ChampagneWinemaker Notes On the nose, clear cut overtones of withered roses, violets, tobacco, underbrush, spices, and a slight touch of vanilla. Dense, closely woven tannins start out smooth, almost velvety, and then explode in the palate with fruit. It is excellent served with flavorful meat dishes and mature cheeses.
