Description

The 2019 Tar & Roses Local Hero Barolo is a striking collaboration between Tar & Roses and renowned Barolo producer Giovanni Rosso, showcasing the elegance and structure of classic Piedmont Nebbiolo. Sourced from the famous communes of Barolo, Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d’Alba, it delivers lifted aromas of rose petal, red cherry, orange peel and Campari, layered with notes of tobacco, leather, spice and earthy savoury complexity.

On the palate is medium to full-bodied with powerful yet refined tannins, vibrant acidity and concentrated dark cherry fruit balanced by savoury depth and fine oak maturation. Long, structured and beautifully poised, it captures the classic perfume and age-worthy character that defines premium Barolo.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional Barolo for customers who appreciate traditional Italian reds with perfume, structure and serious cellar potential. Decant before serving to fully reveal its complexity. Perfect with braised beef, osso buco, truffle pasta or aged cheeses. Drink now with aeration or cellar confidently for the next 10–15+ years.

About the region

Piedmont · Barolo

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
