Araldica I Classici Barolo Flori 2021
Araldica I Classici Barolo Flori is a classic, characterful red wine from one of Piemonte's most progressive and respected cooperatives. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo , it delivers all the hallmark qualities of Barolo DOCG, with tobacco, leather, and violet-scented aromas, firm yet generous tannins, and a long, silky finish that speaks to the nobility of this great Italian variety. Meet the Producer Araldica is Piemonte's largest and most progressive cooperative, yet retains the feel of a small, family-run estate thanks to the inspired guidance of winemaker and manager Claudio Manera, whose father Livio was the cooperative's first winemaker in the 1950s. With 80% of production bottled at the company's headquarters in the Monferrato hills, an extraordinarily high percentage for a cooperative of this scale, Araldica is committed to delivering wines of genuine quality, accessibility, and outstanding value. Vineyard and Production The Flori Barolo is sourced from carefully selected Nebbiolo vineyards in the Barolo DOCG zone, vinified at Araldica's modern winery and aged in accordance with Barolo's strict production regulations. The result is a wine that combines the traditional character of the appellation with the approachable, fruit-forward style that has made Araldica one of Piemonte's most trusted names. Tasting Notes Aromas of tobacco, leather, and violet lead the nose, with classic Nebbiolo complexity and depth. The palate is firm and pleasingly structured, with plump fruit, a round silky texture, and a good, lengthy finish that rewards patience in the glass. Grape Variety Nebbiolo Perfect Pairings A natural partner for braised beef, slow-roasted lamb, wild boar ragu, and truffle-based pasta dishes. Also excellent alongside aged Parmigiano Reggiano and rich, earthy risottos. About the Region Barolo is one of Italy's most celebrated appellations, producing age-worthy reds of extraordinary depth and complexity from Nebbiolo grown in the hills of Piemonte . Explore our
