This expression of Roero by vintner Renato Buganza opens with an inky-dark, saturated color and imparts pretty oak renderings of vanilla and cinnamon over cherry and cassis. There’s a gritty, textured quality to the finish along with a blast of freshness at the end.

Gerbole is a very distinctive Roero with power, heat and undertones of cherry liqueur. The mouthfeel is compact and lean with forest berry and bramble on the close. Pair this Piedmont red with creamy porcini risotto.
