The Character

Overall Generous & warm
Aromas Earthy, truffles, licorice, juniper, tar, balsamic notes, spices, undergrowth
Mouthfeel Full & a bit rustic
Tasting Notes An honest and pure reflection of the terroir of this small but important cru: earthy, truffled aromas along with licorice, juniper, tar, balsamic notes, spices and undergrowth marry to a full-bodied, occasionally rustic character backed by rugged, classic tannins.
Selling Point One of the most prestigious ‘crus’ for Barolo
Sustainability 2019 - Vegan

The Story

This is the principal Barolo of the estate, at least in terms of quantity produced. The vineyard is the Gabutti cru and the exposure is south to southwest. The Barolos of Serralunga are known for their generosity and warmth and the “Rupestris” is as fine an example as one can find.
