Albe is a blend of high altitude Barolo vineyards. As these blocks lie on various slopes with different exposures, you have the opportunity to see three sunrises (Albe) every day.
2017 is a bright year with a beautiful initial balance and yet great potential for improvement over time.
The Barolo Albe 2017 is bright and expressive on the nose. Red currants, cherries, macerated strawberries and mint intertwine with floral tones and hints of dog rose, rhubarb, red fig, hawthorn, lavender and licorice.
On the palate it is generous, layered and youthful, with ripe tannins and a classic finish on cherry tones.
