From a visual point of view, the wine has an intense and luminous garnet red colour. Its appearance is characterized by an evident thickness and depth.

As regards the sense of smell, the bouquet is full of suggestions. Hints of ripe plums and black cherries emerge, followed by hints of undergrowth and coffee. Furthermore, mentholated and aromatic herbal notes can be perceived.

The palate is both powerful and sensual. It is pleasantly caressing and tasty, with compact and soft tannins. The persistence is long and the closure is balsamic.

An interesting curiosity is that after fermentation, the Nebbiolo grapes are aged in French oak barriques for a long period of 45 months. Subsequently, the Barolo Riserva DOCG "Rüncot" of the Elio Grasso company rests further for two years in the bottle before being put on the market. This wine expresses all the elegance and power typical of the appellation, ranking among the best in its category. Its price is worth every penny.
