This 2007 vintage showcases a striking deep ruby color, hinting at the complexity within. On the palate, it impresses with its full-bodied structure and vibrant acidity that perfectly balances the fruit intensity, delivering flavors of dark berries, dried herbs, and subtle hints of earthy undertones. The tannins are notably firm, providing a backbone that supports the wine's aging potential while lending a smooth texture to each sip. The finish is wonderfully dry, making this a captivating choice for wine enthusiasts seeking a true expression of the Barolo terroir. Enjoy this gem alongside hearty dishes or simply savor it on its own for a moment of pure indulgence.

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.
