Azelia Barolo

Azelia's classic Barolo is a blend from seven single vineyards in Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d'Alba, two communes that come together in this wine. The Nebbiolo vines average 50 years and grow at 250 to 370 metres on white calcareous soils tending to clay. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts runs for 20 to 25 days with a submerged cap, followed by 24 months in large casks. The nose is sweet, with cherry, black currant and liquorice, and the wine has fruity tannins and a union of power and finesse. Pair it with roast beef, game birds or a hard cheese. Briffa Wine Selections brings this Barolo to Malta, delivered across the island.
