🏰 Roberto Voerzio is a highly influential modernist Barolo estate, famed for extreme low yields and meticulous vineyard work, producing intensely concentrated yet refined Nebbiolo wines. The 2017 Barolo Brunate, from the esteemed Brunate vineyard, is described as having very subtle aromas of dried strawberry with cedar and flowers, followed by a full body with tight, linear, focused, and polished tannins. It offers earth, spice, and stone undertones, being extremely firm, long, succulent, racy, and driven. Other tasting notes mention black cherry, menthol, lavender, rosemary, and leather, with concentrated ruby red color and complex aromas of super-ripe red currants, raspberries, and cedar integrated with mineral notes, mushrooms, mocha liqueur, smoke, eucalyptus, and pepper. This wine promises a long aging future and needs four or five years to open up. 【 A benchmark modern-classic Barolo from the Brunate cru 】 🍴 This powerful and structured Barolo is a superb match for rich, savory dishes. Think traditional Piedmontese cuisine like brasato al Barolo (beef braised in Barolo), truffle-based pasta dishes, or rich game meats such as venison or wild boar. It also pairs wonderfully with aged hard cheeses. For an Eastern pairing, consider slow-cooked lamb with aromatic spices, or a robust mushroom and beef hotpot. 🥂 Ideal for a significant celebratory dinner, a serious wine tasting, or as a cornerstone addition to a fine wine cellar. Its impressive aging potential makes it a perfect wine to lay down for future enjoyment, especially for milestone events.
