    • Description

      The Michele Chiarlo estate’s reputation has been sealed since 1956, when the eponymous oenologist decided to set up his own business producing great Piedmont wines.

      A bright garnet color with light orange reflections. Scent opens with ripe cherry, raspberry and plum jam, and then sweeping over memories of licorice, tar and rhubarb, and again recalling tobacco, leather, chocolate and truffles. Taste on the palate flows in a constant and progressive way, giving body and silkiness at the same time, and thus proving to be fine in the tannic texture and concentrated on the sip. Long persistence.
