The classic style of Barolo: earthy, bloody, emetic, iron sensations (I am anemic, so I feel iron a lot - because I lack it and my body wants it!),
blood orange with super-ripe black and red cherries and plum, underwood, autumn dried leaves, dried roses in potpourri, black chocolate and leather, pine resin, dried mushrooms, black pepper, cloves, cocoa, complex and deep.
A melancholy, autumnal wine that warms the soul and heart, especially for an Italian woman away from home, as me.
For a classical, iconic Italian wine, a “Barolo”-like song, melancholic and traditional, that talks about the history of Italy.
As an Italian who lives outside her homeland, thanks to this match I believe I have found a way to feel at home anywhere in the world.
Thank you, God, for wine, music, and family!
“Fra due minuti è quasi giorno, è quasi casa, è quasi amore!” with this combo, for me.
