Barolo Annunziata Vigna Plicotti

A single vineyard Barolo belonging to the MGA (Additional Geographical Mention). The Annunziata is the last vineyard purchased by the winery in 1999 and therefore part of the recent production history of Silvio Grasso's Barolo. Harvested by hand, aged in barrique for 24 months, this wine offers excellent structure, with a full bodied, smooth and persistent finish.
