All his best fruit went into a single Barolo instead. The result is a transparent, savoury wine, already showing some orange at the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE GRAPE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% Nebbiolo from Monforte d’Alba, on a cool, northeast-facing hill. The vines are up to 50 years old and the soils are poor, which keeps yields low and the wine lean and mineral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE WINE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDark and wild cherry, leather, smoke and savoury herbs, with liquorice, rose petals and a hint of bergamot. The tannins have softened with time but still give a gentle tug. The finish is long and ferrous, like a drop of iron. It’s old-school and quietly complex, and ready to drink with a decant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOOD PAIRING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTajarin with butter and white truffle, braised beef, fonduta, aged Castelmagno. Decant an hour ahead and serve at 16–18°C.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elio Sandri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57629071016311,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0297\/7208\/7349\/files\/ElioSandriBaroloinaWineCellar.png?v=1792574706","url":"https:\/\/shop.passionevino.co.uk\/products\/elio-sandri-barolo-2014","provider":"Passione Vino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
