This wine is more raspberry patch than raspberry, with all the brambly, stemmy, earthy herbaceousness you could ask of a properly treated Barolo. From a vineyard where the cover-crops are scythed to avoid noise pollution, this wine exemplifies the hands-on diligence of Ferdinando's practices.
Full-bodied, with red fruit, gentle oak, and velvety tannins, Ferdinando's entry-level Barolo will inspire your appetite for a rich risotto or meaty pasta. This wine plays well with others. 2019 was one of the three great Piedmont vintages of the 2010s.
