Viticoltore Mauro Molino, Barolo Conca 2020 – Barolo

The wine has a pale ruby color with slight garnet reflections. The nose is fruity and gourmand: it expresses pronounced aromas of ripe fruit and fruit jam (crushed wild strawberry, raspberry coulis, juicy morello cherry, blackcurrant jam, wild blackberry, crushed blueberry), combined with a pronounced spiciness and savoury sweet spices (roasted vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon in the background, cumin, white pepper), with a touch of dark chocolate, ground coffee, toasted hazelnut, chocolate plum, as well as dried mint, peony and lily. The palate offers juiciness, straightness, gourmandise of ripe fruit and an expressive spicy side. We find notes of wild strawberry, morello cherry, raspberry coulis, blackberry, associated with sugary touches of cherry jam, blackcurrant jam, kirsch morello cherry, chocolate cherry and bitter chocolate, as well as with notes of sweet spices (toasted vanilla, cinnamon in the background, nutmeg, cloves). The tannins have a fine grain and a well-built structure. Beautiful length in the mouth, with gourmand notes of jam and chocolate (red cherry jam, mint chocolate), spicy hints (cinnamon, nutmeg) and cocoa, balanced by a good level of acidity . A full-bodied wine, with volume and power, but with a perceptible alcohol note.
