Raspberries and strawberries with fresh lavender on the nose. Full-bodied and chewy with plenty of linear tannins. It’s structured and powerful. Needs at least six or seven years to soften. Try after 2028.
Sarmassa is a lower elevation basin-shaped vineyard with more compact soils. It lies west of Cannubi and before Fossati. The wines tend to be a bit more structured and dense as a result. This estate has 50-year-old vines at 240 meters in elevation on the flank of the basin. The Virna 2019 Barolo Sarmassa is quite elegant and perhaps a little more accessible compared to the Cannubi. However, this wine shows great balance and offers silky, integrated tannins with solid firmness to pull it all together. Only 3,000 bottles were made.
