Here's a robust Riserva that takes us back to a warm vintage. The 2011 Barolo Riserva la Volta shows some mild evolution with open and slightly oxidized aromas of dried fruit, spice and spicy bresaola or cured meat. That vintage warmth and fruity immediacy gives the wine its cheerful and fruit-forward personality. There is a note of cherry sweetness on the close followed by soft tannins and juicy fiber. Only 1,998 bottles were produced.
