San Silvestro Ruj Barolo DOCG Magnum 1,5 ℓ, In Holzkiste

Barolo Ruj di San Silvestro belongs to the Ruj collection, which in Piedmontese means oak, the type of wood used for the aging of wines. Nebbiolo grapes come from vineyards throughout the Barolo DOCG, including La Morra, Barolo, Monforte d'Alba and Serralunga d'Alba. The wine is aged for 26 months in large Slavonian oak barrels. Ruby red in color with garnet reflections, the nose reveals aromas of rose, plum and toasted notes of coffee. The sip is balanced and velvety, with a persistent finish. It goes well with important courses of roasted and braised meats, both red and noble poultry.
