2017 Roberto Sarotto Barolo DOCG Terra Dei Celti

Barolo DOCG for under $60? Unheard of? Well, you better believe it, because we have one right here and the wine is bloody delicious too. Made from Nebbiolo grapes, this magnificent red, known as “the king of wines and the wine of kings" is a showpiece of Piedmontese wine-making. A wine for big occasions, it charms and win over the palate with its power and body, leaving a lovely sensation of warmth.

The Piedmont wines of Sarotto have become quite the staple here at The Wine Collective, delivering absolutely insightful pleasure about the ways of Nebbiolo, all delivered at a price that beggars belief.

The 2017 vintage is an appoachable offering that showcases the work happening behind the scenes in Barolo to make wines of finesse and elegance. Raspberry, redcurrant and cherry dominate at this early stage, but once those powerful floral notes come in, it will become a beautiful wine.
