On the nose candied strawberry
Perfect on its own or with a tropical fruit desert or even a fruity Middle Eastern savoury dish
a nod to the old stone steps built into the steep hillside so growers could reach the vines
Grape(s): Fernão Pires
where volcanic soils and a cooler continental climate give the wines their freshness and poise
Achille Boroli, ‘Ulmus’, 2019, Barbaresco (DOCG) Bourboulenc On the nose candied strawberry'One Liner' An elegant, traditional style Barbaresco with dried cherry, rose, liquorice, firm Nebbiolo tannins and a savoury, earthy finish. Tasting Note Bright garnet in the glass, with a little brick at the rim. The nose shows dried cherry, wild cranberry, liquorice root, undergrowth and rose petal. On the palate, firm tannins carry red berry and tar edged flavours, with touches of leather, dried herbs and earth. High acidity keeps the wine lifted,
