The Famiglia Anselma Barolo is a classic expression of Nebbiolo, offering aromas of leather, tobacco, violets, and orange zest alongside notes of dried cherry and spice. On the palate, it is lean yet powerful, with bright acidity, firm tannins, and a long, earthy finish. Now showing maturity but still structured for further aging, it shines with rich, savory dishes that balance its grip. Prime rib, braised short ribs, or lamb are natural pairings, while mushroom risotto, truffle pasta, or blue cheese risotto highlight its umami depth. Even fried anchovies with cheese, a family tradition, make a superb match.
