This young Barolo V. S. Caterina from Guido Porro, a prestigious producer in Serralunga d’Alba, presents an intense and complex profile. On the nose, expect vibrant aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry, and dried rose petals, intertwined with classic Nebbiolo notes of tar, licorice, and a hint of forest floor. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, driven by firm, grippy tannins and a lively acidity that balances the impressive 15% alcohol. Flavors echo the nose, with concentrated red fruit, savory spice, and earthy undertones. The finish is long, persistent, and structured, promising great evolution with age.
