The 2018 Barolo Prapò (with fruit from Serralunga d'Alba) opens to a rich fabric of black fruit and toasted spice. The Prapò is a powerful wine with dark oak renderings and 15% alcohol. This bigger style of Barolo will require more cellar time to soften and maybe a heavier meat dish with a reduction sauce.

A fleshy style, featuring generous cherry, raspberry, plum, eucalyptus, leather and oak spice flavors, while burly tannins guard the long aftertaste. Rich enough to approach now, yet better in two to three years. Best from 2026 through 2045.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
