Cascina del Torcc Barolo DOCG Red Italian Wine 750mL limited stock

This is a crazy cheap but very well made Barolo. Drinking really well now it is made for immediate gratification alongside: braised meats, grilled beef, lamb, duck, risotto, especially with mushrooms, hard cheeses but not too pungent.   Will  benefit nicely from some cellaring
