Barolo, 2021

A Barolo Classico that presents a clearer Serralunga character with notes of brine, citrus, tapenade, and layers of red and dark, spicy fruit. The 2021 has a good deal of race and structure to it. The Azelia Barolo Classico is made from a selection of grapes from 50-year-old vines in seven different crus across the Castiglione Falletto (30%) and Serralunga d’Alba (70%) communes, a big part of which is Cerretta and Bricco Voghera. The wine is aged in large Slavonian oak botti for two years, so there is very little oak influence.
