Tasting notes
La Morra. Deep ruby just starting to show orange on the rim. Posh oak and fruit nose. Lots of sweet dried fruit, but nothing that keeps the attention span for long. (WS)

The 2006 Barolo Fossati presents a gorgeous, floral bouquet that resonates on the palate where red La Morra fruit blossoms with gorgeous purity. This is a deceptively mid-weight offering, yet the Fossati possesses plenty of concentration, superb clarity and tons of texture. It is a wonderful effort from Enzo Boglietti.
