Elio Altare Barolo Arborina 2017

Barolo, Italy

WineSaint
Rich and seductive, showing Arborina's signature elegance wrapped in darker fruit than usual for the site. French oak marks the wine at this stage, but the creamy texture and underlying structure suggest this will integrate beautifully with time. Classic Barolo architecture with immediate appeal, yet built for the long haul.
