Fontanafredda La Rosa Barolo 2014

Compelling scents of rose, iris, wild berry, aromatic herb and a whiff of menthol practically leap out of the glass in this fragrant red. Supremely elegant, the savory, focused palate delivers red cherry, pomegranate, licorice and a burst of orange zest alongside taut, polished tannins. It’s wonderfully balanced by bright acidity. Drink date: 2024-2034. Cellar Selection. Score – 94. (Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Nov. 1, 2018)
