Vite Colte – Essenze – Barolo del Comune di Barolo – Red – 2019:

 

The Essence of Barolo: Vite Colte’s Masterpiece

The Barolo Del Comune Di Barolo “Essenze” is a top-tier expression of Piedmont’s ‘King of Wines’ from the acclaimed Vite Colte winery. Sourced exclusively from the prestigious Barolo commune, this Nebbiolo showcases immense structure, concentration, and aging potential. It’s a must-have for any serious collector looking for a classic, age-worthy Italian red.

Tasting Profile & Collector’s Insight

A wine of profound depth, its name, ‘Essenze’ (Essence), speaks to its concentrated character. It presents an intense garnet hue.

• Nose: Powerful and complex, featuring classic notes of dried rose, cherry liquor, tar, and licorice, beautifully integrated with secondary hints of vanilla and fine tobacco from oak aging.
• Palate: Full-bodied and commanding, the palate is defined by firm, yet elegant tannins and high acidity. The texture is velvety, leading to an incredibly long, persistent, and complex finish. This is a Barolo built to last.

Pairing & Decanting Recommendation

Pair this luxurious red with rich, slow-cooked meats or highly savory dishes. We strongly recommend decanting this wine for a minimum of two hours prior to serving to soften the tannins and allow the bouquet to fully open. Serve at 64-68°F (18-20°C).
