Barolo La Morra

fennel and river rocks

Try it with duck

This Pinot shows fragrant purple flowers

This luscious and textural blend is very much a food wine

The Scholium Project, Pergamos 2016 Fuisse Barolo La MorraThis is truly one of the most perfectly composed and beautiful wines we have ever made. A co fermentation of Merlot and Sangiovese from a hillside vineyard in Martinez. The fruit was ripe but not super ripe; and in spite of the drought, the berries were small, but not as tiny and ridiculously tiny as they often have been. We have made a wine of finesse and balance we are reminded of very good, classical red Bordeaux.
