This cru in Serralunga d'Alba delivers a slightly softer, richer and more accessible expression of Nebbiolo. The 2014 Barolo Parafada is bursting with dark fruit that rushes the senses with delightful waves of dark fruit intensity. The wine does boast very firm structure with a crisp tannic bite. It surely needs to soften with more bottle aging, but I don't think you need to wait too long either. Only 4,800 bottles were made.

A complex mix of cherry, strawberry, tea, wild herb and tar flavors marks this exuberant young Barolo. Tightly wound, yet balanced, with a lingering aftertaste and grip on the finish. Best from 2024 through 2043. 400 cases made, 100 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
