Subtle hints of cedar, spice, and earthy mineral add further depth. On the palate, the wine is medium- to full-bodied, with softened yet still present tannins and vibrant acidity that keep the wine lively. Flavors of dried red fruit, savory herbs, and earthy nuances carry through to a long, harmonious finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eThe warm 1997 vintage brought richness and early accessibility, and today the wine is in a beautiful drinking window—offering maturity, nuance, and classic Barolo character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrape:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e 100% Nebbiolo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRegion:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Barolo DOCG, Monforte d’Alba, Piedmont, Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e La Villa (single-vineyard)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Mature, savory, complex\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePairing:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Braised beef, game meats, truffle dishes, aged Parmigiano Reggiano\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCellaring:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Drinking beautifully now; enjoy over the next several years\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eA soulful, fully mature Barolo that showcases the timeless elegance and evolution of Nebbiolo.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Premium Wine Direct ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48933183750384,"sku":"SEGHESIO BAROLO VILLA 97","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/2236\/1328\/files\/seghesiobaralolavilla1997.webp?v=1772558621","url":"https:\/\/premiumwinedirect.com\/products\/seghesio-barolo-la-villa-1997","provider":"Premium Wine Direct ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
