Barolo

1990 Barolo Nebbiolo

The Beni Di Batasiolo Barolo is a stunning expression of the Nebbiolo varietal, hailing from the illustrious Barolo region. This 1990 vintage captivates with its deep, garnet red color, showcasing the wine's age and sophistication. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied profile, perfectly balanced by noticeable acidity that brings a refreshing lift. The fruit intensity is prominently remarkable, offering delightful notes of dark cherry and dried flowers intertwined with earthy undertones. Tannins are firm yet elegant, providing structure while allowing the wine's complex flavors to shine through. This Barolo is wonderfully dry, making it an impeccable companion for rich dishes or a delightful experience on its own.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
