PIEDMONT
The Italian word "Piedmont" means at the foot of the mountains, and indeed the whole region is dominated by the Alps to the north and the west. Piedmont is home to the largest area of vines which produce DOC and DOCG wines, and the region boasts over 40 denominations. The most well known wines from Piedmont include Barolo and Barbaresco, made from the Nebbiolo grape, and Asti Spumante, made from the Moscato grape.

TASTING NOTES
The colour is a classic, intense garnet red. Clean and of good substance on the nose with floral and fruity notes and hints of liquorice and roots. This is a wine of character and marked tannins . Velvety and harmonious with notes of sweet spice and jam. A wine that can grow and evolve for many years. Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
Morello cherry, bruised red plum and rose petal, spill from the glass. Bright fruit intensity is backed up by ripe, silky tannins and wonderful freshness. Drinking beautifully now it can age well for another five years. Truly a baby Barolo from the Maestro’s cellar.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
A deep ruby red, yet with a bright and lively aspect. The scent is complex and rich with fruit, floral scents, spices, underbrush and plums. It has an intense flavour with sweet tannins and a long aftertaste. The Barolo Villero expresses itself with its characteristic stimulating scent, accompanied by a dry but warm and elegant flavour, which it retains for...
