Tasting Notes
Always impressive to taste this famous Piedmontese vintage and GALLEON was lucky enough to unearth a few cases of the great 2016 vintage. When poured into the glass, one can see the great richness of the material. A wide aromatic palette of beautiful complexity, texture, amplitude and length demonstrating the greatness of the terroir. A great wine to decant 30 minutes before serving.
