This favored a slow and regular ripening of the grapes, giving the wine refined aromas and well-integrated tannins.\nThe harvest took place manually between late September and early October, selecting only the best bunches to ensure concentration and quality.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking and aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\nAfter destemming and crushing, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with a long \u003cstrong\u003emaceration\u003c\/strong\u003e on the skins (i.e., the contact of the must with the skins to extract color, aromas, and tannins).\nThis is followed by a long aging period: first in \u003cstrong\u003elarge Slavonian oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for several years, then further rest in the bottle to refine harmony and complexity.\nThe \"Edizione 10 Anni\" is released only after a decade from the harvest, the time necessary to fully express the elegant and powerful character of the Sarmassa cru.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe Barolo Sarmassa 2014 presents an \u003cstrong\u003eintense garnet red\u003c\/strong\u003e with orange reflections, a sign of slow and natural evolution in the bottle.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the nose, it offers a complex and broad bouquet: notes of ripe red fruits, brandied sour cherry, and sweet spices intertwine with hints of dried violet, leather, and slight balsamic nuances. Each aroma tells the distinctive character of Sarmassa, elegant and profound.\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the palate, the sip is warm, full, and structured. The \u003cstrong\u003etannin\u003c\/strong\u003e (the natural substance present in the skins that gives an astringent sensation) is fine and velvety, perfectly integrated into the wine's texture.
