The Barolo Docg Ludo is our classic Barolo, produced with the grapes of Nebbiolo that come from the young estates that are in the area of production of the Denomination.
A wine of great class, with a brilliant red colour slightly amber with time, exuberant in its fragrance of fruit and spices, of great body, full and velvety with a long final taste of goudron and spices.
The tannic characteristics guarantee a long life in bottle in the best vintages, also 20 years.
