Manzone Barolo Bricat 2015

__
A stunning ruby red with captivating garnet notes, Bricat boasts bright, intense aromas of juicy red berries, walnuts, and rich chocolate. Its graceful flavor is beautifully balanced with a subtle tannin foundation. Perfectly matched to braised beef, roasts, truffle-infused dishes, and savory cheeses, this Barolo is a joy to experience.

The 2015 Barolo Bricat opens to a darkly concentrated appearance with savory and smoky aromas of ripe fruit, barbecue spice and campfire ash. This Barolo is painted in broad and long brush strokes, but the quality of fruit is simple and direct overall. It spends 30 months in oak, half of it in tonneaux and the other half in large oak casks.

Aromas of ripe strawberries with plums, tar and orange peel follow through to a full body, chewy tannins and an intense and flavorful finish. Shows drive and focus. Better after 2021.
