The acidity is as important as the freshness

the clear and fragrant scents and the seductive perlage enhance its finesse and elegance

2018 | Domenico Clerico Pajana | Barolo Spatlese The acidity is as importantThe 2018 Barolo Pajana shows a savory character with some delicate spice and smoke that is carefully folded into dark fruit, plum and earthy flower or iris root. Fruit comes from a site in the Ginestra MGA that was planted in 1971 with additional vines added in 1991. The wine shows excellent complexity and balanced intensity that is well suited to long cellar aging. 95 Pts Wine Advocate
