Right now it is floral, spiced and almost transparent, but the structure underneath is stern and very young. Cellar it, or decant it for hours and drink it with something rich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE GRAPE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% Nebbiolo from Sandri’s oldest, low-yielding vines on a cool, northeast-facing slope of Perno hill, in Monforte d’Alba. The Riserva is made only from the best fruit on the property.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE WINE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep floral and spiced aromas, with dark cherry, tar, leather, dried flowers, tobacco, licorice and a bitter-herb note like rhubarb root. The palate is austere and classic, with dense tannins, a balsamic lift and a long, finely detailed finish. It spends years in large old oak botti with no new wood, and it’s unfined and unfiltered. At 14.5% it stays tight and linear rather than heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOOD PAIRING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBraised beef, game, roast lamb, aged Castelmagno, white truffle tajarin. Decant for two to three hours and serve at 16–18°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSEO\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePage title:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elio Sandri Barolo Perno Riserva DOCG 2016 | Monforte d’Alba – Passione Vino\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeta description:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eURL:\u003c\/strong\u003e \/products\/\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elio Sandri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57629134684535,"sku":null,"price":94.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0297\/7208\/7349\/files\/Barolo_Riserva_Vigna_Disa_Elio_Sandri.png?v=1792575447","url":"https:\/\/shop.passionevino.co.uk\/products\/elio-sandri-barolo-perno-riserva-2016","provider":"Passione Vino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
