Barolo

2000 Barolo Nebbiolo

The Damilano Barolo from the 2000 vintage showcases the remarkable Nebbiolo varietal, hailing from the prestigious Barolo region in Italy. This red wine presents a deep garnet hue that captivates the eye. On the palate, it exudes a full-bodied character, supported by high acidity that dances gracefully and adds vibrancy. The fruit intensity is prominent, with luscious notes of ripe cherry, blackberry, and hints of dried rose petal offering a delightful complexity. Tannins are notably structured, lending a firm backbone to the wine, creating an elegant foundation for the rich flavors. This Barolo is beautifully dry, allowing the intricate layers of flavor to shine through, making it an exceptional choice for those seeking a classic Italian experience.

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.
